    Project mention: Fitting a Forth in 512 bytes (2021) | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-10-26

    One compelling use case is getting a REPL on any microcontroller with a UART and, say, ≥64K RAM (I remember lbForth[1] being particularly portable, and there are other implementations you could use as well).

    I don’t know if you’d want to have that be your first experience with the Forth itself, though: there’s inherent fiddliness involved in bringing up hardware; the win is that Forth doesn’t really add any of its own. If you can get it to boot and send and receive bytes, you can get an interactive Forth on it—or if available resources don’t permit that, on an imaginary machine spanning it and your PC (“tethered” Forth).
