SharePoint Online Custom Master Page
You definately could use Visual Studio to create a custom Master Page so that you can utilize version control / source control. You should however consider your approach to branding carefully. In general custom Master Pages should be avoided...

Have you considered making use of Communication Sites in SharePoint Online? These type of sites are generally considerd to be the successor to traditional Publishing Sites
Hi,
I have a similar scenario. Building the azure or .net websites make sense but but it has an issue with the images. Image download from sp online onto azure is an issue..

There is no way to do this with SPFx right now; add your vote to https://sharepoint.uservoice.com/forums/329220-sharepoint-dev-platform/suggestions/15745306-add-support-for-single-page-applications-to-the-sh if you'd like to see that added! Meanwhile you can always use a non-SPFx widget with SPFx type tooling (see http://julieturner.net/2018/01/conquer-your-dev-toolchain-in-classic-sharepoint-part-1/) and host it on an .aspx page in a document library. If you're careful it will port easily to SPFx!
