My theory on why so many people are bad at coding.
What's probably got your shorts in a knot is the contents of the node_modules directory. That directory is a cache for mode.js modules so the tutorial can function standalone without having to install anything else. Treat it as you would object code. I pulled a half-dozen of those modules at random and went to their repositories. Every one of them had unit tests: block-stream, graceful-fs, lowercase-keys, minimist, pify and safe-buffer. Nobody sane ships unit tests with their executables.

what's your hidden gem package?
Not sure it’s hidden but I really like pify to promisify things, really cleaned up my multer calls.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing block-stream and pify you can also consider the following projects:
lowercase-keys - Lowercase the keys of an object
Bluebird - :bird: :zap: Bluebird is a full featured promise library with unmatched performance.
pinkie-promise - Promise ponyfill with pinkie
promise-memoize - Memoize promise-returning functions. Includes cache expire and prefetch.
valvelet - Limit the execution rate of a function
p-map - Map over promises concurrently
rfpify - [DEPRECATED] Promisify a result-first callback function.
delay - Delay a promise a specified amount of time
iterum - Handling iterables like lazy arrays.
promise-breaker - Helps you write libraries that accept both promises and callbacks.
OF - 🍬 Promise wrapper with sugar 🍬
matchbook-ts - pattern matching in javascript & typescript made easy
