writing arguments to the compiler in the command line at the old 
fashion way. Is there any good IDE for D? Thanks in advance!

https://wiki.dlang.org/IDEs has some links. If you're already using some popular IDE, you should look for a D plugin for it. I generally just use vim with syntax highlighting and a single keybinding to run dfmt for me. Despite not using an IDE, I don't spend a lot of time writing arguments to the compiler, because I use build systems to supply arguments to compilers. D has https://dub.pm/getting_started which you should've gotten along with a D compiler, and perhaps https://mesonbuild.com/ and, for what it's worth, even makefiles can save a lot of time at the commandline. If you want a solid place to start instead of a lot of options, go with VS Code and its D plugin, and use dub as your build system. If you have any issues with VS Code you can join the Discord at https://discord.gg/bMZk9Q4 (or if you don't like that, a Matrix bridge gets you to a few of the same room, including the editor one: https://forum.dlang.org/post/kbhexxzmnsvzskjtjeqg forum.dlang.org )

You forgot to mention which OS you are developing on as it matters in this case.

VS Code plugin is one of the best (it's crossplatform) It also supports debugging with breakpoints in the editor directly https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=webfreak.code-d or the bundle to get the whole experience: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=webfreak.dlang-bundle
