Building a Brainfuck DSL in Forth using code generation

Quality: 8/10 Relevance: 9/10

Summary

The article demonstrates embedding Brainfuck as a DSL inside Forth using meta-programming, relying on postponed and immediate words to emit Forth code at compile-time. It walks through Forth basics, shows how to define Brainfuck operations as immediate words, and includes full code samples and a working demo, illustrating an unusual but instructive approach to language DSLs.
