I have some problem with vue application + webpack. When I run npm run dev everything went smooth. When I go for production mode, npm run build, the build process completed. But when I open the dist index.html or copy the bundled package with index.html to shared hosting public_html folder it just show blank.
below is my setup:

My primary suspect is there is something wrong with my asset configuration on webpack, so here is my folder structure in case it'll help.
src
assets
styles
main.scss
App.vue
main.js
Sorry before if I can not show any further code, thanks.
I assume that you are running your production on a sub directory from the root project folder, e.g. http://example.com/folder.
If you project is in the folder sub-directory, you will need to configure the assetsPublicPath in config/index.js for the build property.
Example:
build: {
assetsPublicPath: '/folder/'
}
Also, your routes file should have the base property set to:
export default new VueRouter({
base: '/folder/'
})
See more here.
Upon gathering more data from you, it could be the configuration on your host that is loading the wrong page.
For Apache, your Alias or vhost should be pointed at the dist directory. For example (my own use case)
Alias /foo /var/www/htdocs/foo/dist
