Djot is a light markup syntax
Djot is the markup syntax that is used for the documentation of Scryer Prolog, using a parser written in Prolog:

It works well so far. One of the few limitations I noticed so far pertains to the formatting of tables. For instance, consider the table used in library(format) to describe control sequences:
https://github.com/mthom/scryer-prolog/blob/b0566e41503a6c8d...
It contains several entries that span multiple lines, yet are meant to denote only a single row of the table, such as:

What is your favorite programming language?
I thought you might enjoy this, if you haven't seen it already.
- PHP is Prolog implemented in C, compiled to WASM, speaking CGI, executed by a Rust runtime, interpreting PHP-style templates

PHP: Prolog Home Page
When I clicked the last commit message was too good. Preserving just in case they are doing rapid releases: https://github.com/guregu/php/commit/65b1e991f473d6ac0dd9de4...

The beauty of CGI and simple design
Recently I enjoyed some "retrofuturistic" development with WASM and CGI. Spin[1], a webserver written in Rust, can execute WASI[2] binaries that speak CGI. You can then deploy it to Fermyon Cloud or your own server and it "just works". It's a wonderful mix of old and new. I used it for PHP (Prolog Home Page): https://github.com/guregu/php
[1]: https://spin.fermyon.dev/
[2]: WASI is a POSIX-ish standard for WASM that gives you all the low level stuff like standard input and output. It includes all the bits and pieces needed for CGI to work.
What are some alternatives?
swipl-devel - SWI-Prolog Main development repository
logtalk3 - Logtalk - declarative object-oriented logic programming language
logica - Logica is a logic programming language that compiles to SQL. It runs on Google BigQuery, PostgreSQL and SQLite.
quickserv - Dangerously user-friendly web server for quick prototyping and hackathons
differential-datalog - DDlog is a programming language for incremental computation. It is well suited for writing programs that continuously update their output in response to input changes. A DDlog programmer does not write incremental algorithms; instead they specify the desired input-output mapping in a declarative manner.
trealla - A compact, efficient Prolog interpreter written in plain-old C.
materialize - The data warehouse for operational workloads.
ciao - Ciao is a modern Prolog implementation that builds up from a logic-based simple kernel designed to be portable, extensible, and modular.
tau-prolog - An open source Prolog interpreter in JavaScript
trealla-js - Trealla Prolog for the web
prolog - The only reasonable scripting engine for Go.
