Theorem: if you have tests for all the features of your program (e.g. implementing a spec) you don't need to measure code coverage. Agree?

Has the JS ecosystem reached a point where people agree roughly what a good architecture looks like? I don't see as many blog posts complaining about new framework churn and I'm wondering why.

There are docs resources like https://diataxis.fr/ that categorise documents based on format and intended audience. They don't say where you should start, or what order you should write docs. I'm currently thinking README > reference > tutorial > how-tos. Agree/disagree?

JSON is too small (no comments) and YAML is too big (many string syntaxes, relatively few implementations). TOML is in the sweet spot for complexity, but I agree this syntax is by far the most confusing part. TOML 1.1 improves it at least:
Proposal: Allow newlines and trailing commas in inline tables · Issue #516 · toml-lang/toml
Proposal: Allow newlines and trailing commas in inline tables · Issue #516 · toml-lang/toml
Overall I really like toml and its syntax feels very obvious to me for the most part. The only thing that doesn't is the expclicit cripling of inline tables, i.e. inline tables cannot have newlines...
