On: D Language accepted for inclusion in GCC

[int_19h]

Is there a D IDE with good code completion and refactoring support? Last time I tried it, all that I've seen were pretty bad at it - handling the simple stuff fine, but breaking down on more complicated stuff, metaprogramming especially (kinda like most C++ IDEs did 8 years ago or so).

Code completion yes. (DCD provides this as a library). d-mode for emacs is nice, both of the plugins for vs-code I know work. There are plugins/extensions for (i think) xcode and (i know) Jetbrains's stuff (I don't use it so i can't really comment.

Refactoring, no.

Edit: There is also a D-specific IDE called coedit, which is pretty good AFAIK

I just checked out Coedit. It looks quite nice, although I'm rather baffled that it's written in Pascal.

I assume it's forked from an existing open-source editor, but there's nothing in the source headers to say which one.

I think it's based on Lazarus.

Also a visual studio plugin

[int_19h → VHRanger]

I've tried VisualD, DlangIDE, and VSCode plugin. All seemed to be handling completion very poorly, and "Go to definition" basically not at all.

Due to the high complexity of d and the small community, there are currently no "great " ides.
