Forth: The programming language that writes itself: The Web Page
That can be very productive and clever, but be - and stay - aware that such polyglot solutions tend to be maintenance headaches in the longer run.
There is a really nice open source project out there that allows you to train your hearing and your sightreading, but it's written in the authors own language which in turn compiles to JavaScript and the headache to set up their toolchain is such that I haven't bothered fixing any of the bugs that I'm aware of (and there are plenty).

It's written in a language called 'Moonscript':

Which compiles to Lua. Which compiles to JS.
Madness. Nice madness, but still, it stopped me from being a contributor.

Forth: The programming language that writes itself: The Web Page
As soon as I met Forth, I felt I had to hack my own [miniforth](https://github.com/ttsiodras/MiniForth/) - and did so over a single week, two years ago. I targeted the Blue Pill and the original Arduino, but developed via cross-compilers so that I could test my code in the host.
I became so obsessed with the project that I was looking forward to tinkering with it after coming back from work every day; so it was hacked in 5 evenings and a weekend.
It was that fun, to build a Forth. I highly recommend the process - I think the only other time I felt so enlightened was [when I first met Lisp macros](https://www.thanassis.space/score4.html#lisp).
