I always start a new project by creating this folder structure. 
Then open yourprojectroot with vscode. Maybe vscode extensions 
have automation for it, but I never bother using it.

/yourprojectroot/
/yourprojectroot/dub.json //minimum content: {"name": "myproject"}
/yourprojectroot/source/app.d

For the serve-d issue, you can open an issue or ask WebFreak001.
