Node is nearing 10k published libraries. Is there a comprehensive site listing Java libraries?

It's trivial to offload blocking operations to other processes in node too, it's just not the preferred option.

Node is nearing 10k published libraries.

And ruby has 38237 gems. 99,9% of which are garbage.

Library-count is a terrible metric.

Have you ever programmed in Java? That's a strange question to ask if you have.

Whatever libraries node has is a drop in the bucket compared to java.

I haven't, thats why I asked. Node is just 2 years old. You'll get 90% of garbage on any open package manager.
