Show HN: R3forth, a ColorForth-inspired language with a tiny VM

The article introduces R3forth, a minimalist programming language and environment inspired by ColorForth and the Forth philosophy. Key points: 1. R3forth is designed to be a complete, self-contained system that balances extreme minimalism with practical creative power. It has an ultra-minimalist VM (~40kb) written in C, with a focus on simplicity, speed, and portability. 2. The language follows a "zero bloat" philosophy, providing only the core VM, stack, and user code, without massive standard libraries or complex toolchains. However, it offers a rich ecosystem of libraries for graphics, 2D, 3D, collision detection, and GUI development. 3. R3forth is architected for high performance, with a self-hosted compiler (currently for Windows) written entirely in the language, laying the groundwork for future direct-to-metal implementations. 4. The article provides a quick start guide for both Linux and Windows, explaining how to run the precompiled binary or build the VM from source. It also outlines the workflow, including the integrated development environment (IDE) and the standard text editor workflow. 5. The article showcases various demos and games created with R3forth, demonstrating its capabilities as a creative suite for video game programming and beyond.
