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.

Noweb – A Simple, Extensible Tool for Literate Programming
I found Mr. Ross' funnelweb utility to have the best syntax. Unique and easy to read.
http://ross.net/funnelweb/tutorial/index.html
Unfortunately the only known implementation was last updated over two decades ago, and is written in pretty hard to understand C.
I asked for permission and started a repository here: https://github.com/loa-in-/fw-utf8
I currently have it unmodified there, except for disabled check for ASCII range. (this modification is included in initial commit, sorry, my bad). Otherwise code is the same.
What are some alternatives?
