Other packages similar to is-core-module

builtin-modules

The builtin-modules package provides a list of the Node.js built-in modules. It is similar to is-core-module in that it helps identify core modules, but instead of checking a module name, it provides the full list of built-in modules for direct use.

resolve

The resolve package is a more complex module resolution library that can be used to resolve the path of a module like require.resolve does. It can also be used to check if a module is a core module by resolving its path and checking if it is null, which would indicate a core module. It offers more features than is-core-module but can be used for a similar purpose in some cases.
