Description

The one we have right now is the one that comes free with Django. It's great for what it's supposed to do, but it was never meant as a primary front-end.

Now that there's a proper REST API, we need a real front-end in the one-page-app style.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Review the current Django templates, explore the REST API endpoints, and research suitable front end frameworks (e.g., React, Vue) for building a single page application.
