Say to load and extend the Javascript runtime environment, for example:

frappe/erpnext/blob/develop/erpnext/public/js/utils.js#L3


      
          // Copyright (c) 2015, Frappe Technologies Pvt. Ltd. and Contributors
          // License: GNU General Public License v3. See license.txt
          frappe.provide("erpnext");
          frappe.provide("erpnext.utils");
          
          
$.extend(erpnext, {
          	get_currency: function(company) {
          		if(!company && cur_frm)
          			company = cur_frm.doc.company;
          		if(company)
          			return frappe.get_doc(":Company", company).default_currency || frappe.boot.sysdefaults.currency;
          		else
          			return frappe.boot.sysdefaults.currency;

This will get you lots of example cases:

frappe@ubuntu:~/frappe-bench$ find . -name *.js | xargs grep frappe.provide
