I am not familiar with dlang at all man. Kinda sounds that you were set up gor failure.
Buuuut, have you tried the dlang package for vs code?? There is a difference between visual studio and visual studio code. Vs code being cross platform and everything it should give you a good way to get organized. Don't know how good it would be for ultra large projects. Also try codeblocks -
Ok, so in the long term in order to become more useful as a dev you need to understand how things work without an IDE.
In the short term - you're going to have to learn how DLang works. Hint: Don't approach it with your prior knowledge of Java and Java idioms or you will be setting yourself up to fail -
@AleCx04 I don't know how I did not know there's a Visual Studio Version that doesn't suck o.O
Visual Studio Code works like a charm, pretty much set itself up to work with the folder I provided, was able to build and execute.
Thank you so much, what a magic IDE! -

@kleopi its a text editor :V and for the record I do not believe thst any versions of VS suck. Glad i could help though.
I wrote this code about 3 years ago.
I guess we all had to start somewhere ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Guys I need your help.
Im a guy used to java development, so used to nice assisting IDEs.
Turns out my boss has a very complex and not very organized server written in Dlang which im supposed to add a semi-complex functionality in.
So far I have a Linux-Mint VM running a docker container able to build the system. Now I'm really not used to editing code without an IDE and all IDEs I tried on windows or Linux dont seem to work (maybe due to minimal knowledge in Linux and D).
Furthest I got was to get Visual Studio set up with Visual D, but it wasnt able to import the dub
project giving weird unsearchable errors.
Is there anyone out there able to get me started with an IDE? The server is on a github-repository, is a dub project and has a few dependencies.
I'm just totally lost.
