I want to dip into react or blueprint.js due to the data heavy side of this application. However the tutorials around react all assume using non that loads a ton of dependencies that makes it difficult to judge what all is going into production .

There's a certain amount of "just the way it's done now" to the NPM dependency topic. A bit like how with the .NET ecosystem everything has turned into many dependent Nuget packages whereas before it was all integrated into coarse-grained DLLs. Not getting bogged down in the hell that is the dependency upgrade cycle is a key concern here. If you can accept the inevitability of a bit of noise when it comes to this, you will eventually become familiar and comfortable with the chatty output of the NPM build process. Maybe you could decide on a particularly stable (LTS) release of React, that may not be subject to too many dependencies which are in a state of flux?
