Pilot having views based on React, without needing to do that entire declarative authorization refactor.

Previously: (Pilot having views based on React, without needing to do that entire declarative authorization refactor.)

• [ ] The process of doing webpacker and npm and yarn etc. is well documented for devs
• [ ] There are examples of test cases for the React code, and those are run when CI is run.
• [ ] There are examples of test cases for the backend API calls.

This enables us to divide up future dev efforts between front-end React stories, and backend Rails development.

Then, future implementation can follow this model.

Already done in another issue:

• [x] The React app is being served out of Rails... (as demonstrated in the Spike from Summer 2019). You embed the React app in Rails.
• [x] There is an example in the code base of a page that uses React to fetch and display data
• [x] That example has a backend RESTFul JSON API that does appopriate authentication of the user to whatever data they are accessing (the react app can phone home with authorization and authentication.)
