Heh, he's so right in every regard although I use Node.

Worst of all, they made npm packages dead easy, so most of them don't even have a readme file, not to mention inline docs like POD or RDoc. This is how you end up with spam pacakges, malware in npm and lpad disasters.

Given the popularity of Github, and the fact that a readme file is the first thing you see when pulling up a project on Github, most projects these days do in fact have readme files.

JSDoc is relatively popular.
