It's true, you couldn't really do Express in Java, at least not back then.

See C#'s asp.net core minimal apis (a express clone). So it is definitely possible but you need to co-develop the language. I think as you point out.

It’s possible to have something like Express, take a look at Javalin.
But Java problem is not the mechanics, it’s that the community doesn’t want nice things.

I don't understand, what's Express? As for libraries and Java, I'd argue Java became a well established enterprise language and platform exactly because it makes such highly effective use of libraries.
