  A lightweight integrating markup language

This is similar to the approach I take in my markup language: https://github.com/smasher164/mexdown. Pipe the body of a code block to the command's stdin, and replace the code block with its output.

  Executable markdown documents that you can run, template, and share! (by khalidx)

Interesting, going to check this out today.

I built something in a similar spirit to your comment and this larger thread, albeit a bit simplistic. Lets you document and write your bash scripts in a markdown file, then you can run the blocks. It figures out what arguments you expect in a block and turns them into CLI flags. https://github.com/khalidx/runbook

Not sure how useful it is but I use it to maintain a collection of documented bash scripts.
