Retro: A Modern, Pragmatic Forth
While not quite a Forth, Kitten is a stack language:

Stack-based array-friendly static-typed proof of concept
Since you're making a statically-typed concatenative language, I'll point you to a joy reference, kitten, notes to motivate type checking stack languages, and a paper that formalizes type checking for stack languages. Since this looks like a relatively high-level stack language (given the presence of ADTs), you may find that you want to add quotes to your language, specifically opaque quotes since your language is typed. In that case, you'll realize that you'll need a better way to formulate polymorphism over stacks, and the paper on type checking will provide that to you.

A Forth Apologia
Well, there is Kitten, although it hasn't seen an update in two years and was moving quite slowly before that too.

I much prefer `data.action()` to `action(data). Is it an r/unpopularopinion?
