CommonJS's specification of how modules should work is widely used today for server-side JavaScript with Node.js. [1] It is also used for browser-side JavaScript, but that code must be packaged with a transpiler since browsers don't support CommonJS. [1]
Developed in Rust by same original author as Node.js and directly targets TypeScript but also supports JavaScript and WebAssembly. Employs asynchronous, event-based I/O model via promise-based APIs and Tokio scheduler, uses an API security model based upon FlatBuffers and implements package management via ES2015 modules. Eclipse e4: Rhino
Plug'n'Play allows users to run Node projects without node_modules folder, defining the way or location to resolve dependencies package files with the Plug-n-Play-control file. This feature is aimed to fix an unwell structured node_modules architecture and resulting in a faster Node.js application start-up time.
All npm packages are JavaScript libraries, but not all libraries are packages. Npm serves as a package manager for packages used in Node.js runtimes. [18] [19] However, some npm packages offer CDN support for use of the library in both Node.js runtimes as well as the browser. [20]

Express.js, or simply Express, is a back end web application framework for building RESTful APIs with Node.js, released as free and open-source software under the MIT License. It is designed for building web applications and APIs. [2] It has been called the de facto standard server framework for Node.js. [3]
Supports only ES Modules like browsers where Node.js supports both ES Modules and CommonJS. CommonJS support in Deno is possible by using a compatibility layer. [27] [28] Supports URLs for loading local or remote dependencies, similar to browsers, and uses module specifiers like npm: and node: to import NPM or
As the Node.js API is subject to breaking changes at a binary level, modules have to be built and shipped against specific Node.js versions to work properly. To address the issue, third parties have introduced open-sourced С/С++ wrappers on top of the API that partially alleviate the problem.
