First time I have ever heard that. Yes, of course I know SourceForge, but never heard the term forge being used generically, like, ever.

- leephillips 3y agoNeither have I. Probably because almost nobody uses the term that way. It’s just Wikipedia—in other words, just something somebody made up. There’s no citation.
- mikecoles 3y agoA forge is just a place where people go to bang out something useful or entertaining. It's not common, put the name comes up in dev contexts.
- irrational 3y agoWhat dev contexts? Do you have a citation? I’ve been a developer for just shy of 25 years and have never heard or read “forge” used in that way.
