Don't worry, we're not offended because we know it's true.
I bet that pretty much most of NPM's package index consists only of weekend prototype projects that are abandoned afterwards. It's sad to see that there's literally no baseline of quality measurements on NPM, and people give them stars far too quickly, without realizing that it's literally a single line of code with megabytes of useless testing around it.
Most of the patterns in UI/UX frameworks that come and go all the time are actually very very old paradigms that have been known in Computer Science since the 60s-70s. I always feel like no one reads a book about Software Engineering or Software Patterns anymore, let alone tries to find patterns in alternatives and makes a pro/contra list of features to find out what they actually want.
All go hush hush and rush rush to put out their next starlet on GitHub, without actually thinking about a software architecture anymore. Those that do are somehow invisible to the masses; and can never gain really a traction behind their ideas, which leads to the abandoned code problem either way.
