Fixes #60 Consumes REST API using React to generate Canvas App Components #61

Starting point for addressing issue #60. Fetches JSON file from REST API, and using JSON data to create new ProductCards with custom information.

We talked on the meeting that this should

Do a for each on the return from the API call and just use that rather than a fixed value
Include the headers and footers from the PlasmicHome component
Do a few other touchups on the cards

It's possible the images won't be working here yet but we can fix that with #57

@jonespm Implemented all the necessary code in Home.jsx, but can't get the json to work. I was wondering if you had any idea why. When I use async await, there isn't even a GET request in the terminal for /api/lti_tools/ and the webpage doesn't load, and when I remove async and await, a GET /api/lti_tools is shown in terminal, but the webpage still doesn't load.
