FMix: a package manager for Forth
FMix is a new package manager designed for the Forth programming language, inspired by tools from modern languages. It aims to simplify project management by allowing users to create projects, manage dependencies, and run tests with familiar commands. The tool provides a minimalistic approach, focusing on essential functionalities without becoming a large framework.

- ▪It supports fetching dependencies directly from Git repositories.
- ▪The package description file uses a Forth-like format instead of traditional formats like JSON or YAML.
