The "npm-ness" of Cargo (centralized and standardized dependency management used at every opportunity) is generally pitched as one of the primary developer experience advantages over C++.

Java'd Maven is also a centralized standardized dependency manager, as is Python's PyPI. However, neither the Java nor the Python ecosystem have devolved into having dependency libraries with 4 methods in them becoming used and required by major libraries.
