Mixed d code with views made vibe.d like old PHP code, it hard to

Not really take hours, but very slow and require a lot memory.

Thanks for the tips, I will try extends. What will be really nice 
is some thing like:

```twig
{% extends "base.html" %}

     {% block sidebar %}

         ...
         {{ parent() }}
     {% endblock %}
     ```
