[ ] Data view page

Frontend Dev

[ ] TBD (depending on tools used)

Backend Dev

[ ] Survey for data collection (if not using ODK)

Additional Notes

App already has some legacy survey-js code and display pages. We also have tried previously embedding odk forms as an iframe, however this is not ideal as hard to track what forms have pending submissions or to force submission without re-opening the surveys. Suggested alternatives:

1) Wait for enketo deployment of https://github.com/enketo/enketo-express/pull/454 to allow better iframe event monitoring 2) Try to recreate direct embed instead of iframe using code from https://github.dev/enketo/enketo-express/blob/master/public/js/src (built via esbuild). Can also see how platforms like kobo embed their widgets. Benefit of this would be direct access to indexeddb used for forms 3) Abandon ODK for alternative systems (e.g. surveyjs)

Will also need to carefully check any license requirements for platforms used (e.g. attribution)
