as with most tools mentioned on the digitalmars homepage I am unable to find
ddoc.
I know it exists, judging by the whole page dedicated to it but the tool
itself is never mentioned in any download page.
Not to offend anyone but the digitalmars homepage really could use some
rethinking. It was one of the reasons I almost didn't try d :p
I always get lost in it.
It would be great to also have a link to the full phobos documentation
generated with candydoc on the digitalmars d page instead of
http://www.digitalmars.com/d/2.0/phobos/ , candydoc generates something more
readable and structured.

ddoc is embedded in dmd. It doesn't have a standalone executable.

module t;
/// This is documented
void main() {}

dmd -D t.d

t.html now contains documentation.

D's homepage is stored at github, so if you have any suggestions, you 
could fork/modify/pull-request changes. I don't see any big problems 
with the homepage myself. A better search feature (for phobos) would 
have been nice.

Is candydoc still maintained? I see it hasn't been modified in 5 years, 
so I guess it won't work on D2.

CandyDoc is DDoc. Or at least CandyDoc is just a bunch of macros and CSS 
files for DDoc.

DDoc is D's documentation standard. At one time it was its own 
implementation but it was merged into dmd early one.

The new official D home page is at

http://d-programming-language.org/

The Phobos documentation there is much nicer:

http://d-programming-language.org/phobos/index.html

The output of ddoc is not static. It's a templated system that can be 
configured to look however you like.

wow, that site looks way nicer. Too bad google doesn't take it as first
result.
and the documentation is indeed much better :)
