The differences to dlangui

From dlangui it differs basically in the feature set, heavily refactored codebase, improved and simplified API, and various optimizations. Layout system has significantly changed, CSS replaced XML Android-like theming, Painter replaced DrawBuf, gettext is used instead of ini-files. Signals and actions now work entirely on delegates.

What was removed:

  • DML - it is unnecessary to invent a Turing-complete markup language like QML for making good UIs in D
  • DOM - some dead code
  • Scene3d - some irrelevant code, for my opinion
  • SFML backend - I cannot guarantee good maintenance for it, with various features such as HiDPI. Someone can write (and publish) its own, better implementation.
