Source etymology 1
Original entry ↗A furnace or hearth where metals are heated prior to hammering them into shape. · A workshop in which metals are shaped by heating and hammering them. · The act of beating or working iron or steel. · A web-based collaborative platform for developing and sharing software.
From Middle English forge, from Old French forge, early Old French faverge, from Latin fabrica (“workshop”), from faber (“workman in hard materials, smith”) (genitive fabri). Cognate with Franco-Provençal favèrge. Doublet of fabric and fabrica. Partially displaced English smithy. * Computing sense perhaps derived from the early SourceForge service, launched in 1999.
