As I've said on more than one occasion, for simple usage dub 
works fine. Slowly, but fine.

It just doesn't scale. Anything non-trivial is hard to do and has 
to be hacked together. I liked dub too when I used it for 
personal projects but then I had to use it to do "real work" and 
it quickly broke down.
