Factorio packages are Blueprints and Blueprint Books! And the equivalent of npmjs.com would be https://factorioprints.com .

One of the stages of evolution of a Factorio programmer is learning how to make scalable modular blueprints that you can stamp down one next to another, with their inputs and output routed so they all plug together easily and run in parallel, without having to be manually wired together.

yeah at this point I consider a game like that solved and my interest in it disappears along with any craving to explore more. It is solved, move on.

That's a bit like saying programming is solved because package managers exist.

Just like NPM packages, blueprints just let you get into much more trouble much faster!
