Oh, huh. I guess that makes sense? I don't quite know how these package managers work. I thought you download it once and now you have a copy on your machine. You only need to redownload if upgrading to a new version

They probably aren't using a package manager, or at least one that persists between builds, because package managers cache.

I see. Custom build script then? Coz I thought even amateurs just use package managers most of the time like npm and pip

Yep custom and these build systems often don't persist the package manager's cache - preferring to start from a blank slate.
