Yes, there are a lot of ways to install it, you can even git 
clone dmd and compile it, write your code in notepad++ or copy 
con hello.d, but here I am talking about user experience. Today, 
a programming language without a language aware editor and 
without debug features, it's unusable. Compare with rust:

1. Download installer
2. Run it, no user interaction except pressing Enter
3. Launch VSCode
4. Extensions/rust-analyzer
5. cargo new hello
6. rust-analyzer/run -> ok
7. rust-analyzer/debug/run -> ok
