Major frontend rewrite:

• typescript has replaced babel, reducing bundle size by 25%.
• glamorous being no longer maintained, emotion is the new css solution.
• react replaced preact due to emotion.
• nightwatch uses chrome driver directly, no more selenium.
• concept of layout, each component can choose its own layout or uses the default one.
• all routes are loaded dynamically to reduce bundle size.
