https://rocket.rs/ is basically this, but in rust instead.

https://vibed.org/ is basically this, but in D instead

ASP.Net MVC is basically this, but much more mature and feature packed :) And C# is no slower than D.

I very much doubt that. Do you have anything to back up that statement?

Benchmarks are tricky and hard to find for dlang as its not that popular, but I have common sense to back that statement. Dlang garbage collector is really really slow for now [0], and C# has a very fast GC and overall is almost as fast as zero-overhead languages like Rust or C++ [1]. So, its reasonable that for anything that involves GC (we all can agree that web server does) D is not that fast as manual memory management languages yet.

I have benchmarked D code against C,Rust and C++, most of the time D code is faster than Rust and C++ so I doubt it's on pair with C#.

Also in Vibed, Diet templates (~= Mustache templates) are compiled using this into binary classes.

The new WebConfig library looks promising too: https://github.com/WebFreak001/WebConfig
