Use vuepress instead of pelican #4

Because vuepress has a progressive web app module, a website with vuepress is loaded one time in the browser at first call. When navigating, page are build in the browser and there's no call to the server.

Also, next time we visit the same vuepress site, it's directly build in the browser from localstorage. There's only one call to the server to check if content have changed.

Hi thanks for the suggestion, we'll look into it. Advantage of our current setup however is that it works with browsers that have javascript disabled.

Your current setup is definitely more accessible, and uses lower energy on the client end as well, which is especially important on mobile devices.
