prose

An experimental literate programming toolkit that reads markdown files and extracts code blocks to produce executable JavaScript programs. Current version 0.0.1 is a proof-of-concept released in 2013 with no further updates. It uses marked for markdown parsing and focuses on embedding code in markdown using shebang language declarations. Unlike other literate programming tools (e.g., Org-mode, Jupyter), prose is minimal and language-agnostic but limited to JavaScript/altJS compilation. It has no active maintenance or releases.
