Description

The size of the full CSS bundle doesn't stop to grow since we add some helpers, sometimes based on breakpoint, and components are often more complex and heavier.
Users may make their own builds to optimize the size, but it won't be feasible with grid helpers, since it is very difficult to customize and even to plan.

The best approach is to setup a tool like purgeCSS to optimize the size of the build for helpers.
We should add a new page explaining how to use purge and how to optimize the size of stylesheet.
We should check with the "sass" page to be relevant and cohesive. Maybe we could also talk about how to mahe you own build and remove unused components.

Note: add a whitelist for some utilities (#475)

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing “sass” page and the issue’s proposed PurgeCSS and custom-build topics. Add a cohesive Ecodesign page explaining stylesheet-size optimization, PurgeCSS usage, and removing unused components, while addressing the referenced whitelist consideration; done when these topics are documented consistently with the Sass page.
