What you are referring to is scaffolding. You do not require scaffolding to use vue.
You are also using build components to minify JS code and include all types of things such as fall backs.
If you want to learn it from scratch you can start with the CDN version then move onto learning to use the templating engines and so on.
If you really want to start to learn things from scratch.
- Use CDN Versions
- Learn Rollup.js
- Learn Vue
