The (offline) tour allows you to run the code directly in your 
browser  - though of course that's really an absolute necessity.

The Dlang-Tour uses the web framework vibe.d 
(https://github.com/vibe-d/vibe.d). vibe.d currently uses 
libevent as underlying event library by default. Though with the 
upcoming 0.8.3 release that's about to change soon - it will then 
use the native D vibe-core scheduler by default.
You can already use vibe-core today if you want to:

dub --override-config="vibe-d:core/vibe-core"

(BTW libevent is typically available as libevent-dev or 
libevent-devel.)

In any case you can also always read the "pure" Markdown content 
directly on GitHub:
