# Plorth ![Build Status]
Plorth is stack based, concatenative, strongly typed functional scripting
language which is easy to embed to applications written in C++. It's inspired
by [Forth] and [Factor] programming languages.
Features:
- Strong typing.
- Supports JSON data types and syntax.
- Garbage collected.
- Prototype based OO, just like in JavaScript.

## Compilation
C++11 capable compiler and [CMake] are required to compile Plorth interpreter.
CLI interpreter depends on [linenoise] library, which is included in the
repository as submodule and GUI interpreter depends on [gtkmm] library.
```bash
$ git submodule update --init
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ..
$ make
```
After the interpreter has been successfully compiled, you can run the `plorth`
binary to start Plorth REPL.
