How to integrate jquery-ujs to a Laravel 5 application a clean way?

I want to create DELETE links using the jquery-ujs library.

I tried to integrate it into my application by following this how-to. So I installed the package first:

npm install --save jquery-ujs

The second step is require('jquery-ujs'); Where should I place it? I've tried to add this into my app.js, but no effect.

Finally I've simply copied the rails.js from the library folder /node_modules/jquery-ujs/src to the /public/js. Yeah, it's working! But it's just a workaround.

I'd like to integrate the lib cleanly. How to do this?

_{Btw. there is a package efficiently/jquery-laravel, that should cover this requirement. But I want to find a solution without a further package.}
