Probably better than Nodejs Gulp Yo man ugabuga npm here's 3.4 million files for you to download or Python is it 2.7 or 3.1? Pip too and Ansible let's make that terminal a disco night of text! or some Go "Works great for my static file blog" build tool.

You aren't wrong about that. I've lost countless hours to people doing some random thing to get a newer Python version (even if they didn't even need it), only to completely hose both the new one and their system one. And the npm situation is really messy for many people who are new to it.
