The 'stream' package is actually the native Node.js Streams module. It provides the foundational building blocks for working with streams in Node.js. Compared to @types/readable-stream, it does not require type definitions because it's part of Node.js itself, but using it in TypeScript projects without type definitions might not provide the same level of type safety.
Through2 is a tiny wrapper around Node.js streams.Transform (Streams2/3) to avoid explicit subclassing noise. It's similar to @types/readable-stream in that it provides a simpler interface for working with streams, but it focuses more on transform streams and does not come with TypeScript types out of the box.
Highland.js manages synchronous and asynchronous code easily, using nothing more than standard JavaScript and Node-like Streams. While it offers functionality similar to @types/readable-stream by working with streams, it also introduces utilities for handling asynchronous operations and managing backpressure, making it more of a utility library on top of streams rather than just type definitions.
