So that the live search can filter things, they need to be on the page when it loads. We want to make search work across folders, so all the things in subfolders need to be in the page. They also need the full path appending to them, so that you can tell which ones are in which folders. This won’t show items that are in a folder above the one you’re currently in – my reckon is that when you’re narrowing down by clicking into a folder that you only want to search for things in that folder.

Updating application dependencies
requirements.txt file is generated from the requirements-app.txt in order to pin
versions of all nested dependencies. If requirements-app.txt has been changed (or
we want to update the unpinned nested dependencies) requirements.txt should be
regenerated with
make freeze-requirements
requirements.txt should be committed alongside requirements-app.txt changes.
