This assumes front-end development.

From a (dev)ops perspective, if I had a vendor hand me a tarball instead of proper documentation, I'd look very far away from their company. It isn't a matter of if shit goes wrong, but when. And when that shit goes wrong, having comprehensive documentation about the architecture and configuration is going to be a lot more useful than having to piece it together yourself in the middle of an outage.

Yeah, I almost added a clarification for that very point, and see now that I should have.
