Come join us in the D development effort. We have plenty of productive things to do that will push you past your limits. This kind of work is also good for giving your career a boost - this has happened to many on the D team.

Do you guys accept contribution from junior devs (2-4 years out of college that have no compiler experience)?

We don't care who you are or what your resume looks like. If your work is excellent and is what we need, we'll accept it.

Compilers in the real world aren't that complicated - if you delve into dmd you'll spend way more time on the actual codebase than theory.

The web site is dlang.org, the source tree is https://github.com/dlang

Just hang out in the forums forum.dlang.org for a while and you'll get sense of what's going.

If you're ambitious, internally motivated, don't need to be micro-managed, and are a crackerjack programmer, you'll be welcome.
