Five (5) megabytes of JavaScript for a basic brochure site... I assume 99.9% of that is only necessary after signing up and signing in, not while unfortunately viewing the page on a less-than-flagship mobile device and metered data plan?

Welcome to web in 201x. This is not a problem exclusive to Vue.

With that said, the new vue-cli uses Webpack 4 now which can do code splitting, and you can code split on route also to make individual page bundles smaller.

It's going to change and get less hefty, we're looking into code splitting.

Not to mention the images. The home page background image alone is 600ko ! More than the entire HTML.

Saving the site on the hard drive gives me a wooping 10Mo for a home page. with a menu, a few pictures and some text.

This is insane.
