@gordon that was an excellent reply, exactly what I needed to know. This information should be in some form in their FAQ/Docs/Wiki since more than likely an Espruino adopter would be coming from coding nodejs. It's absence prompted me to use the forum. (espruino folks listening here?)
So summarizing your post
I should expect to just write code that calls the API mostly. There is a package manager and module system (still commonjs?) but use it sparingly if at all. Don't count on using any package from NPM unless it has very few or no dependencies. At least for now there is limited ES6.
Actually being an ole geezer I can remember the good old days of the first IBM PCs and trying to get your (FORTRAN/BASIC) program to fit into 128K. It's back to the future..fun
