The problem of developing with D are the Libs.
Someone recommended Derelict but like Mike said:

I was using Derelict because back in the day it was recommended
here until to find out it was not supported anymore.
As I am game developer hobbyist, who likes to explore and
recreate games and implement engines algorithm myself to mimic
games like: Mario, F-Zero (Mode-7), Wolf3D (Raycasting), Doom and
so on, I would recommend you to look over SDL (OpenGL is a plus),
and the rest is just Math.
