In this file you can configure some properties related with FE.

E.g size of the images of prodcuts on the overview list. You can also add here a custom ID of image with your own size and generate picture in PHP

Additionally, you can set some properties without override templates files like 

<vars module="Magento_ConfigurableProduct">
        <var name="gallery_switch_strategy">replace</var>
</vars>

This example change behavior of gallery for configurable prodcuts. So sometimes instead override the template file, you can reach your goal by this file

    I am not sure if there is any official doc for it, but you can check list of properties in "vendor/magento/theme-frontend-luma/etc/view.xml" – K. Maliszewski Sep 24 '18 at 7:54
