Investigate: How big are react apps?

One of my concerns with building a react app is that if I host these on my droplet, it's going to clog things up in and take space. What I want to know is: when I go through the process of minifying and exporting the code, how much space does it end up being? What goes into uploading and running this on my webserver?

My other concern (which I'm trying not to think about too hard about) is: my website is 99% static, and introducing JS could mean adding an attack surface to my website. Probably just being paranoid.

Did this by running npm run build then examining size of "build" directory.

By comparison, my vanilla JS project was only 12kb.
