The D programming language is often advertised as a system programming language due to its static typing and metaprogramming capabilities.

I’ve never used D but this really makes me want to give it a shot. Did anyone try it, and would you recommend using it?

    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.
