Mecrisp Stellaris Unofficial UserDoc¶
Mecrisp-Stellaris is an embedded Forth Operating System for ARM Cortex-M Microprocessors** (Mecrisp is closest to the STC model, but not quite because it isn’t threaded at all)

Ok, I’ve run Forth using a off-the-shelf board, I made a led blink, I have a basic understanding now, so WHAT SHOULD I DO NEXT ?
