Create the application skeleton

[brehaut]

Before work can begin in anger we need a skeleton application that can run in the context of the backend teams docker container. This needs to be a minimal build system and set of libraries required to get the a stub application to load in a browser.

• [ ] Infrastructure for development time:
  • [x] Dependency management.
  • [x] Build scripts (get deps, clean, make distribution build)
  • [ ] Web server integration with backend teams nginx config.
• [x] Application stub:
  • [x] Minimal home page controller and view ("hello world")
  • [x] Minimal template
  • [x] Minimal stylesheets
• [ ] Confirm webpack tree-shaking

No Adventure-Lookup application code is required for this skeleton project.

Please try to avoid bringing in 'we might need' dependencies at this stage.

Discussion on the discord between frontend regulars comparing the react and angular skeletons decided on going with react (at least initially with material ui) for this.

Backend platform now also hosts frontend. See this commit and the README for details
