Description

Something like this:

const Frint = require('frint');
console.log(Frint.version); // 2.2.0

That way, we can know while debugging in the browser what version we are dealing with quickly.

(I currently have no idea how this can be done)

Research direction
Investigate the main entry file (likely index.js) to see how other exports are done. Export the version from package.json by requiring it and assigning to a property. Check if there is a version.js or common pattern in the repo. Ensure the export is consistent with existing API.
