Research direction

Start with the dependency declarations in package.json at v0.170.0 and check which listed dependencies use Git repository references. Find published packages or successor projects for bootbox, bootstrap-2.3.2, font-awesome, jq-pagination, keyboarder, localforage-backbone, notificationfx, purl, and toprogress. It is done when those declarations use package references and the UI dependencies remain available.
