I'm naive about javascript and particularly the NPM system. Are all packages on http://npmjs.com prebuilt (if that's the right term) ? In other words, is http://npmjs.com similar to maven in that it hosts the code that will run (in Java terms, zipped class files, or in JS terms browser-ready JS files), or does the code hosted there need to be built by npm locally first ?
