Abstract

A system and associated method for availing literate programming in a software development environment. An integrated artifact manager processes a retrieval request and a storage request pursuant to a user group associated with respective interface. A developer user uses an integrated development environment interface. A commentator user uses a wiki interface. An integrated artifact has a source code fragment and a design code fragment that is associated with the source code fragment by tag describes the source code fragment. The source code fragment is stored in a source code management system. The design comment fragment is stored in a wiki repository. The developer user modifies both source code fragments and design comment fragments, and the commentator user modifies only design comment fragments.
