How to read version of app in app?

I want to read the app version stored in manifest.json:

...
"version": "0.1.0",
...

during the execution of the app (really just after loading) to display the app version. I also do NOT want to have the version in multiple places because it can get out of sync. Is there a way to read fields of the manifest while the app is executing?
