It works for a lot of things, but judging by the Issues backlog 
on github it probably has some work to do before it gets to 1.0.0.

Atila Neves obviously was the key developer and probably the best 
person for the OP get in touch with.

One thing that might be interesting wrt to dpp, beyond fixing 
issues (which is also very valuable), might be to make a list of 
C libraries that already have D bindings and check what dpp works 
on. Your job is already partly done because the binding it 
available. At a minimum, you can verify what dpp works on - that 
D users have found valuable enough to already submit bindings - 
and what it doesn't work on, helping to pinpoint additional 
issues.
