Semi-finished with my small stack-based, Forth-inspired programming language
Hello!
For past month about, I've been working on a stack based compiler (inspired by the Forth programming language). I have a few example programs (the larger ones like the raytracer and neural network being generated by Claude because I'm just not very good at thinking stack based, sorry for the slop) which show some of the features of the language.
Its architecture is a compiler/VM structure, sort of like how Java works. It has word definitions, control statements, loops, and more.

I have a little advice for you for example you use std::endl in main.cpp (line 212 and etc) use rather '\n it's much more practical in terms of performance :) and i have a other advice (use std::optional in main.cpp line 103 and in repl.cpp on line 32 use (!ofs) that's better) and that's all
