I am not bad at Javascript, but I find it really hard to follow open source projects on Github, why?

I have been learning Javascript for past six months now and also know the basics of Node like events, streams and buffers etc. I also know the fundamentals of HTTP protocol. I thought with this background I would be able to understand the source code of projects like Express.js and Hapi.js etc, but my experience is contrary to what I assumed. Where am I lacking?
