Clairth

Clairth is my attempt at writing a Forth. It's still very much in its infancy and I'm not committed to finishing it as a project, but here's the things I'd like it to include:

• Exclusively targeting M1 ARM on MacOS. Given that this is a personal project I want to focus on really understanding my own computer rather than on portability.
• Not ANS compliant: I don't actually care about being able to run other people's code and would like the opportunity to rethink the standard dictionary
• STATEless: always compile by default to make code more consistent
• JIT assembly generation and word inlining
• A type inference system, used to enable word overloading by compile-time pattern matching on the stack (I've never seen this done in a forth!)
• Ability to hack into dictionary resolution to allow for quoted strings without spaces, namespacing, and possibly glyphs
• Symbols
• A vocabulary to integrate with the MacOS GUI libraries to make live-editable native apps
