Description

Since every major browser now supports ES Modules, it would be nice to have this library offered as ES Module as well. This way, we could use it without the need of a bundler.

Research direction
Examine the current build configuration in package.json and rollup.config.js if present. Add an ESM export by including a 'module' field in package.json pointing to an ES module build. Ensure the existing bundler configuration outputs both CommonJS and ES modules. Adjust the main entry point accordingly. Test the module in a browser environment without a bundler to confirm correct loading.
