# Docker-Forth - Docker images for popular Forth systems

When you try to write portable Forth programs it is hard to verify
that your program is in deed compatible to a wide variety of 
Standard Forth systems. It would be ideal if you could test your 
program against many systems. With Forth systems in docker containers
you now can.

This repository provides Dockerfiles for a growing number of 
popular Forth systems, so it is getting easy to run them for a
test drive.

If you are not familiar with Docker, read about it at
[www.docker.com](https://www.docker.com/).

If you want to write Standard Forth programs and contribute
them to the community have a look at
[forth-standard.org](http://forth-standard.org/ "Forth standard web page")
and 
[theforth.net](https://theforth.net/ "The Forthnet")

## Try them

All free systems are also available as prebuilt images. To run them just run

docker run -i -t --rm rundockerforth/SYSTEMNAME

where `SYSTEMNAME` is one of the above Forth system names.

## Contribute

If you want to improve the images (e.g. update them to a newer version, 
reduce the memory footprint, etc.) or contribute other systems,
I would be happy to accept your pull requests.

May the Forth be with you.
