Replace AngularJS views with Python views
The version of AngularJS we are using is old and unsupported, and there is no migration path to newer Angular versions. The way we use AngularJS is non-standard, so it's difficult even for people with AngularJS experience. We don't use all the power of this framework.
If we write the dynamic parts we need in plain JS and leave most of the heavy lifting on the Python side, this will dramatically reduce the amount of JS code that needs to be maintained.
