If you mean at run time, this is a bit fiddly (there is no nice abstraction anywhere that I know at least):

It would probably be a good idea to add such a function to Phobos at some point.
Usually, to avoid that, I just assume that the current working directory is the same as the executable directory at startup and store that as the application root (or possibly the parent directory).

Yes! Good idea. DUB stores application binary somewhere in temporary directory, and it's useless to determine executable path. Thanks.

You can use this:
https://bitbucket.org/Abscissa/semitwistdtools/src/c278c4620638629faa396a2d29e4b5034abf874d/src/semitwist/util/io.d?at=master#cl-168
(It uses some special imports at the top of that file.)
Should work for (at least) Win/Lin/OSX.
