I'm new to these kind of forums and I apologise on my writting 
skills.

I'm not a regular D user (mostly on python) but I have an idea to 
popularize D programming language.

I'm from a university which produces agriculture graduates. At 
most times we do our programming tasks with python such as some 
calculations, make simple guis, draw charts, some arduino 
programmings using python (not directly via ide). They are simple 
tasks and I think D language can do these things easily.

I tried to introduce D language to my several colleagues. They 
like the syntax but they hate the installation procedure. DMD , 
compiler, dlangui, dlang ide ......

As they are python users they love what python installer does. It 
comes with compiler, tkinter gui, sqlite, idle(we replace this 
with sublime text). For most users this bundle is sufficient. 
Then we install some essentail libraries via pip. Some of us use 
anaconda python installer without installing anything by 
themselves.

So, can you make a software bundle which containing compiler, gui 
library,an ide, sqlite ... etc for dlang. This bundle would be 
sufficient for most users

I think it would do a better job popularizing dlang among users 
like us who doesn't have CS degrees.
