In the Common Lisp world there is Quicklisp which works perfectly, however "nano libraries" a la NPM are often shunned in that community (as well as in many others).
Often a Common Lisp library will only require 2 or 3 dependencies and each one might require 0, 1, or 2 dependencies.
Part of this is due to the comprehensive "standard library" built into the language specification itself, part is also due to maturity -- some third party libs have become de-facto standards.
