This PR implements a proposal to change from webpack to vite.
We'll need to change the repo's name, though, since we won't be using webpack anymore.
The proposal changes from django-react-webpack to django-react-boilerplate.
(This PR is based on two open PRs, #57 and #58 , so be sure to merge those before)
Link to task: fix #59
How to test:
go to this branch
reinstall all dependencies (make install_dependencies)
run the app and check it's working as intended
run the jest and cypress tests
