Is it still closed source? What is the reason?!
I think it is Open Source now, see https://github.com/dlang/dmd
AFAIK the backend is based on the Zortech C/C++ backend and Walter Bright had to get permission from Symantec to relicence as Open Source.
I see, makes sense.
Yeah, C# and Rust, in their own ways, pretty much covered what D lang set out to do.
