I have great memories of Factor; it was the first open-source project I got involved with and I learned so much about not just writing code, but how important tests, documentation, and tooling are. I ran into Slava years later when I was interning at Google & he had just started there. A lovely person as well as a very clever one.
Happy to answer any questions people have. I’ve not been active on the project awhile (kids and a new job), but I’m still at least aware of goings-on.
Factor is such a gem of a language. The tooling it shipped with was also totally remarkable.
