What I don't like about LDC, is you have to install the entire Visual Studio if you want a static build [1]. Contrast this with Go, Nim, Rust, Zig and others, that don't put this burden developers. Is DMD any different in this regard?

DMD doesn't require anything else. Except for Win64, where it needs the VS C runtime library and linker.


> VS C runtime library and linker

is that included with the DMD installer? If not thats the same situation as LDC.
