You can try PhotoStructure (disclaimer, I'm the author). It's an image gallery built with Vue and vue-router (for your images). If you look at the vue-router documentation, they've got some examples to follow.

The back/forward buttons, command-click, and ctrl-shift-t work on all modern desktop and mobile browsers.

I started with traditional page loads, but even with minimal css and no js, screen flashing between pages was prominent (especially on mobile), and visual transitions between pages (like swipe navigation where both prior and next page content is concurrently visible) is difficult.
