Upgrade 1.4: Inquire about how to rebase JWA

[wg102]

Sub item of epic: #1242
Ask the people who did the rebase previously.
The issue is that it comes from a different repository.

Front end and backend.

[wg102]

Backend

After a quick chat with Will, it seems the way they have done the update previously is to launch the upstream jupyter-api, then open devtools and take a look at any of the requests that the webapp is making to the backend, along with their payloads and then update the golang schema for any corrections.

Frontend

What to do with the front end?...
The big changes are:
Migrate to Angular 12 from 8:
Merging our i18n
Refactor i18n to use angular's default

Option 1:
Create a new master branch, copy the file directories
Redo all our work on top of it

Option 2:
Manually do the upgrade to angular 12
Manually do any additional changes from their side.

[wg102]

I will be going with option 1. Between the big changes they did it should be fast enough to do our own modifications on top. I will make the list and execute it.

[wg102]

This is the physical differences, there are also a lot of validation

The volume table
The price table

[wg102]

The investigation is done. There is a ticket on how to deploy angular
