Nuxt Optimize BootstrapVue Size

March 9, 2020

Edit nuxt.config.js.

Enable Tree shaking
Setup SCSS

export default {
  css: [
    '~/assets/styles/app.scss'
  ],
  modules: [
    'bootstrap-vue/nuxt',
  ],
  bootstrapVue: {
    bootstrapCSS: false, // Or `css: false`
    bootstrapVueCSS: false, // Or `bvCSS: false`
    componentPlugins: ['NavbarPlugin'],
    directivePlugins: [],
    components: [],
    directives: []
  },
}

NOTE: I am using Navbar component only, and Bootstrap Layout/Grid and Utilities. Check available plugins.

If you are using Bootstrap SCSS Theming, remember to remove CSS import.

Edit assets/styles/app.scss

You can selectively import scss file
