    i have seen those in annotated javascript documentation. but it was the other way around. (comment on the left, and code on the right).

    they all seem to use docco[0] with the option to display comment in "parallel". the author of docco used it in their library underscore[1].

    Side note - it's been a while since i've seen a Docco-style annotated-source-style documentation! http://ashkenas.com/docco/

    Backbone.js was the first time i saw it, and I loved it! https://backbonejs.org/docs/backbone.html It demonstrated to me that the libraries I use are just normal code that other people write, and i myself can read it to understand a problem.
