Greetings! I think Factor is a very interesting project.
Something I myself am trying to learn more about in my spare time, is how minimal a bootstrappable implementation could be: What the minimal amount of work is that has to be written in a different, lower-level language to bootstrap a full-featured language on top of it (in other words: Defining as much as possible of the standard library in the language itself). Factor does a great job of this already, but I am having a bit of trouble to get started reading the C++ source code in the 'vm/' folder of the repository, because it is a single folder containing ~120 source code files : Are there any guides or other reference materials that explain the architecture, setup and concepts behind the 'bootstrapping compiler'? Thank you for your time, ~Qqwy / W-M
