We need user-friendly error messages in all possible failure scenarios:

[ ] API is down
[ ] API is up but Elasticsearch is down: use a proper HTTP error
[ ] Unexpected JavaScript error: make sure we do fall back to the static version?
[ ] Whole Go server is down: configure custom error pages in CloudFlare?
