ForthOS - Metacompiler Pack
ForthOS - Metacompiler Pack
Rebuild ForthOS for any CPU architecture from within the running system.
The metacompiler compiles a complete ForthOS kernel for a new target architecture without leaving the Forth interpreter. Write a 150-line target definition file — get a bootable kernel image out.
Includes:
- `meta-compiler.fth` — Metacompiler Phase A+B complete (85 words)
- `target-x86.fth` — Self-rebuild for x86 (validated: boots, prints `7`)
- `target-arm64.fth` — ARM64 target (Raspberry Pi 3B/4/5) — in progress
- `target-riscv.fth` — RISC-V RV64 target — planned Q3 2026
Phase B4 validated: metacompiled kernel extracted via QEMU pmemsave, booted fresh, `3 4 + .` printed `7`. The system compiles itself.
Best for: Engineers targeting embedded systems, new hardware platforms,
or anyone who needs ForthOS on non-x86 iron.
