For work, that would be:

* Database drivers for Postgres and SQLite
* ORM
* Unit test framework. I want something like RSpec
* RabbitMQ and ActiveMQ
* Some way to interface with Selenium and PhantomJS

For non work related things it would also be:

* Sass
* CoffeeScript
* I would prefer HAML over that templates used in vibe.d but I guess 
there' close enough

I haven't looked in a while for these things on code.dlang.org. I know 
some of them exist but I don't know the quality of them. In the Ruby 
world there's a lot of developers behind most of these libraries, 
there's no chance that these libraries would suddenly disappear overnight.

These are the libraries I can think of right now, that are generally 
needed for most projects. Then there are of course special requirements 
for some projects. But in Ruby you can be pretty certain that most 
things are already available as a library.
