It will be so much refreshing if someone write LLVM alternative in D language, its compilation speed is much faster than many compiled languages.

Having said that perhaps Tilde can be a good compiler addition for D in addition to the existing GDC (GCC), LCD (LLVM) and the reference compiler DMD.

It's interesting to note that Odin is implementing its compiler alternative in Tilde maybe due to some unresolved issues and bugs in LLVM [1],[2].

Why not in Go/C#/Rust/Java or Kotlin/etc?
