What’s the web story like in D these days? The thing I really like about Go is how easy it is to spin up a decently high performance web service.

if you want to use vibe.d as a fairly complete solution to most tasks. You will not have the fastest web service, but you will be really productive. I think with vibe.d you can easily beat node.js in comfort for writing web services, especially because most errors can be found and fixed at compile time already.

vibe.d is pretty similar to express.js

There are also other non-vibe web service libraries like arsd cgi (can't tell you much about that one) or hunt-framework (which is probably the highest performance library for the D ecosystem if you can believe the benchmarks, but doesn't have much documentation)
