It is a bit odd, but I am rocking with it. I have done Java and NDK in C++ tutorials to get simple programs running, but nothing original, or beyond what the tutorial provided. With 8th, I can whip up something quick with a GUI, using the sensors and other libs it comes with, and deploy it. It looks the same on Windows, Android and Linux. The developer makes him self available, and quite honestly, the code is succinct enough and the documentation good enough that I only asked a lot the first week. You should give it a try. I am by no means a 'Forth programmer', and 8th is not a compliant Forth.
I'm intrigued by 8th - in a good way - and happy you've introduced me to it - but I do wonder what kind of uptake something like this will get.
