Welcome to dsource.org
- This site serves as an open source community for the D Programming Language.
- Our goal is to provide an environment conducive to open-source development, including forums, source-code control, bug-tracking, and distribution.
- To further knowledge of programming in D, we also plan to host generously-donated tutorials, showing various techniques, differences from other languages, and best practices of D.
- This site is
tinysmall-ish right now, directly mirroring the D community. As the D language grows, we hope to grow as well. - Please add your feedback and requests to the Site forum or send us an email at "admin AT dsource DOT org".
- A current status of the site can be found on the Site tab.
Getting Started
- For source-code control, there are a few options...
- Subversion may be used. We feel it is a better tool than CVS. The homepage for Subversion gives a few different reasons for this. You can find instructions on how to set up different Subversion clients here
- Mercurial is now supported (2007 Q3)
- git is now supported, thanks to Alan Smith (2008 Q1).
- For ticket/bug tracking, code browsing and changesets, roadmap/milestones and project management, as well as wiki documentation, we use Trac.
- If you would like to host a project on the site, please contact us via email at "admin AT dsource DOT org". We do not yet have automated project creation tools. In the email, include the following:
- project name
- short description
- your dsource username (see Forums section)
- source-code control system
- svn - Subversion
- hg - Mercurial
- git - Git
- dsource.org admins hang out in IRC on Freenode... #dsource is the channel
