My point was that I don't consider this advice for everyone. I 
already know how to use dub. I recommend improving the docs so 
that someone else doesn't have the pain points that I had when I 
was trying to figure it out.

You had recommended looking through json/sdl files from existing 
projects to learn how to use dub properly. If someone took this 
advice for learning D, it would be to look at source code in 
random projects to try to understand the language. I've got your 
Learning D book on my bookshelf. It doesn't just have one line 
that says, hey just look at some source code and figure it out. 
It breaks things apart into small examples so that you can easily 
process each part.

I put a few changes I would make to the docs on this thread.
