A Forth-inspired language for writing websites

Forge is a new Forth-inspired stack-based language designed specifically for building websites, featuring both server-side and client-side rendering. It allows developers to write web content using a stack-based syntax and includes built-in support for microformats and dynamic features like 'like' buttons. The language compiles to WebAssembly and offers a unique approach to web development by combining traditional server rendering with client-side SPA-like navigation.

Background

Forth is a stack-based programming language known for its simplicity and extensibility, while WebAssembly enables high-performance execution of code in web browsers. The combination of these concepts for web development represents an innovative approach to building websites.
