Update header to more closely match GOV.UK#36
Merged
Conversation
Make it look more like a standard GOV.UK header, replacing the custom styling with GOV.UK CSS. Remove the loading status text on the visualisation graph page, which took up unnecessary space.
Instead of referencing the CSS file on the design system website, take a copy of it. References to the "GDS Transport" font file have been removed for simplicity.
Most of the pages are duplicating a lot of code, extract this to a common `base.html` template. One page—`metrics.html`—doesn't use this header yet.

Use a copy of the GOV.UK CSS, and copy the GOV.UK header HTML from the design system to make the app more aligned with other GOV.UK apps.
Also removes the header duplication between pages by extracting a common
base.htmltemplate that the pages then extend.Removes the "status" text from the visualisation graph page, which was non-standard and not really necessary.
