File size is much higher

I am using react.js with laravel and I found in public/js/app.js the file size is 50 MB.
How can I reduce the size of this file?

You should look at some sort of treeshaking process and ensure that you are using a decent bundler. Also, ensure that you are using a production build of React when you run this metric. Development builds are considerably heavier than a true production build. Happy Coding!

Look at your dependencies, what dependencies are you using in your react app? Maybe you bundle more than you need.
