Spike: Investigate using Jinja for Web Templating

[bglossner]

What I am Investigating

Whether it is feasible or a good idea to use Jinja to reduce the amount of code needed in each page.

What I did investigate

• I watched a few YouTube videos on using Jinja for templating in Django, like this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3tf8XlhsQAo
• Then I tried it out on a new branch for our project. Using Jinja will be very helpful for creating grids and cards from data.

  Result (output) of the Spike

• Decided to use Jinja extensively to decrease the amount of code needed (especially JS).
