* Switch to using string literals for locale keys Various message keys were being specified with a string template instead of a string literal. They have been switched to use string literals so that the script for detecting unused messages can find them. * Remove unused locale messages A number of unused locale messages have been removed - probably leftover from old UI elements that have since been removed. The `verify_locale_strings` script has been augmented to search the UI for string literals, and match those against the locale message keys in the `en` locale. Any messages without a corresponding string literal are assumed to be unused. The script has also been updated with an optional `--fix` parameter, which will automatically delete any unused messages from locales. 148 unused messages were found in this case, out of a total of about 650 messages. Another 70 messages are _potentially_ unused and require further investigation, but weren't as easy to rule out because they were found in string literals. * Remove additional unused locale messages The following messages were more difficult to rule out because they were present as string literals in the UI. They do appear to be unused as locale keys though.

Building locally
- Install Node.js version 10
- If you are using nvm (recommended) running
nvm usewill automatically choose the right node version for you.
- If you are using nvm (recommended) running
- Install Yarn
- Install dependencies:
yarn - Build the project to the
./dist/folder withyarn dist. - Optionally, to start a development build (e.g. with logging and file watching) run
yarn startinstead.- To start the React DevTools and Redux DevTools Extension
alongside the app, use
yarn start:dev.- React DevTools will open in a separate window; no browser extension is required
- Redux DevTools will need to be installed as a browser extension. Open the Redux Remote Devtools to access Redux state logs. This can be done by either right clicking within the web browser to bring up the context menu, expanding the Redux DevTools panel and clicking Open Remote DevTools OR clicking the Redux DevTools extension icon and clicking Open Remote DevTools.
- You will also need to check the "Use custom (local) server" checkbox in the Remote DevTools Settings, using the default server configuration (host
localhost, port8000, secure connection checkbox unchecked)

Uncompressed builds can be found in /dist, compressed builds can be found in /builds once they're built.
