Installing and using D on Code Ocean

1. Open Code Ocean's custom package management system.

2. Use apt-get to install build-essential . 

3. In a postInstall script, enter: 

#!/bin/bash
curl -fsS https://dlang.org/install.sh | bash -s install ldc-1.6.0  

See the following two examples for more specific usage demonstrations:

https://codeocean.com/2018/01/04/vectorflow-mnist-example-lpar-dlang-dub-rpar/code

Note that the second example installs supplementary D libraries via the postInstall script.
