A beginner's intro to coding zero-knowledge proofs
Noir, built by Aztec, is the newest language of the pack and is under active development. It is distributed as nargo, a rust-based CLI, and as a set of npm packages. The npm packages releases seem to lag slightly behind the crate, which has the bleeding edge features and only got its first stable release a few days ago (early February). Both the rust crate and the npm package can be used to compile Noir programs, generate and verify proofs, and create a verifier Solidity contract.
