I'm afraid not, not for anything serious at least. The
documentation is okay, but not great; greatly lacking examples.
There is no built-in support for any real database engines and if
you try to use something not built with vibe.d's fiber
architecture in mind (even things from the standard library, like
std.process) you're in for a world of random locks.
I don't have pretty much any experience in webdev, but I tried
RoR, node.js and vibe.d. Let me say, the experience was not in
the vibe.d's favour.
