Implement countUp.js jQuery version

I’m trying to add the countUp.js library to my project.
Everything works fine so far by following the sage 9 documentation on how to add 3rd party packages.

  1. Get the package yarn add countUp.js
  2. Add it to main.js import 'countup.js/countUp-jquery.js';
  3. Execute it like in the description

However, for this project I need to implement the jQuery support: https://github.com/inorganik/countUp.js/blob/master/countUp-jquery.js

Unfortunately I can’t make it work. I tried to import both, countUp.js and countUp-jquery.js to main.js and call the function in Common.js e.g. $('.test').countUp(4927.3); but without luck.

Any hints on how to make it work?
