remake-framework VS factor

Remake is an open-source framework that can do in 1 line of HTML what takes other frameworks 100 lines of code.

* Form submissions

All of this is pretty trivial to get working out-of-the-box with very little effort from a dev. So no one has to reinvent the wheel.

And these features, if done well, are all that 90% of businesses need to create value for this customers and become profitable.

I'm really excited about this space. My email is in my profile if anyone wants to talk about it further.

Mavo is great, but doesn't come with a backend. I'd recommend checking out Remake as well (https://remaketheweb.com/), which comes with a backend and user accounts out of the box — and has a really simple syntax. It's made for beginners (who only know HTML & CSS) who want to build their first web app and get an idea of how everything fits together.

There are a lot of great options, but it depends on what you're trying to do. If you're building mobile apps, Adalo or Glide, but if you're building web apps, then Bubble or Remake.

Remake sweeps away those excuses. I took a few hours on a Friday to sketch out an idea for Shelf.page and build it with Remake. A preview of the shelf.page web app Shelf.page is representative of a really common kind of app. Every user gets a profile or account page at a unique URL, with a bunch of fields to customize their page and edit it themselves.

You could contribute to https://github.com/remake/remake-framework, which me and several other devs have been working on for a couple years.

My impression so far is (in general), Forth are practically limited to doing embedded/microcontroller development.

For us, web/mobile/desktop app devs, beside:

- 8th (https://8th-dev.com)

- Factor (https://factorcode.org)

Any suggestion which implementation we should look for?

Factor is also very much worth a look. Forth-style syntax, but with many of the ideas from CL and Smalltalk as well. In fact as a CL fan, I was very impressed by it. It's also quite "batteries included" a la Python.

Otherwise, and more seriously, I'm not completely sure variables are needed. Factor is quite usable (it's my favorite go-to language if I quickly need to script something), and mostly doesn't have them.

There's a note on the page from 2022-08-19, that a lot has been added to it. It also links to the github page[1] for the up-to-date changes.

I am a Lisp, April, APL/J/BQE, and Forth[2] aficionado. I did some file munging programs in Factor back in 2012 at my job to sort through theater attendance logs in Word to compile statistics.

Is there any "battery-included" ANS Forth (more or less like Python/Go) which provides access to concurrency, networking, database, GUI, etc?

Not an embedded device programmer, but mostly deals with frontend apps, and occasionally backend, so those are very relevant to me.

Or perhaps use "non-traditional" Forths like 8th (https://8th-dev.com) or Factor (https://factorcode.org)?
