Noweb – A Simple, Extensible Tool for Literate Programming
I've been writing literate programs for years
Here is a video showing a literate form of Clojure:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mDlzE9yy1mk
The literate program creates a new PDF and a working version of Clojure, including running a test suite. If you change the literate code and type 'make' it re-makes the PDF with the new changes and rebuilds/retests Clojure.

Noweb – A Simple, Extensible Tool for Literate Programming
Literate Programming is one of those ideas I keep coming to. There is an idea there that touches on something I find to be true about software development, namely that the communication of an idea to other humans is the most critical piece. There is a similar idea in Naur's paper "Programming as Theory Building."
That said, I've never loved the LaTeX-centric nature of most tools. I don't like heavier markup systems while I am writing prose, which is why I wrote SpiralWeb (https://github.com/michaeljmcd/spiralweb) as a Pandoc/Markdown centric tool.
What are some alternatives?
Literate - A literate programming tool for any language
dotfiles - Yet another dotfile-repository
fw-utf8 - Modern fork of FunnelWeb (original written by Ross Williams)
verso - A new approach to literate programming.
portia - ultimate literate programing preprocessor
ntangle.vim - Literate programming in VIM
knot - A literate programming tool that uses Markdown.
