Dependency Injection in Forth - Brad Nelson
"Dependency Injection has become an increasingly popular design pattern in languages like Java, Kotlin, and C# by way of frameworks like Guice, Dagger, and Spring. Although the pattern can be a frightening fount of complexity if overused, when applied in moderation it can sometimes be useful. I'll explore how this pattern can be expressed in Forth and consider if a pattern usually applied in gigantic codebases works at the scale of Forth."
