Description
The website's gallery doesn't have thumbnails, and the bootstrap installation could be stripped down.
The W3C mobileOK Checker (which has some quite questionable suggestions, but its download size counter is useable) reports:
Primary document: 9.2KB, Images: 2.6MB, Style sheets: 124.6KB
It explains the need:
Big pages require a possibly high cost and a long waiting time in many mobile networks. For instance, on many mobile networks, downloading 100KB worth of data takes as long as 1 minute.
- Gallery needs thumbnails (or responsive images, or something like that)
- Bootstrap could be stripped down → would reduce stylesheet's size

Research direction
Start by inspecting the gallery implementation and the Bootstrap/SCSS setup to measure the current page and stylesheet sizes. Determine whether gallery thumbnails or responsive images and a reduced Bootstrap build are feasible, then verify that the reported download sizes improve without breaking the gallery.
