Align the licensedb UI and UX with SCIO/VCIO (e.g., using Bulma)

[pombredanne]

It would be great to improve and align the licensedb UI and UX with SCIO/VCIO (e.g., using Bulma). There are also some bugs and pending UI improvements.
See https://github.com/aboutcode-org/scancode-licensedb/:

• https://github.com/aboutcode-org/scancode-licensedb/pulls @AyanSinhaMahapatra are these stale?

• scancode-toolkit/src/scancode/api.py

  Line 145 in c05a13d

  SCANCODE_DATA_BASE_URL = 'https://github.com/nexB/scancode-toolkit/tree/develop/src/licensedcode/data'

  needs update
• https://github.com/aboutcode-org/scancode-licensedb/issues has pending things

This could be a nice project for new contributors that is not too big.
This could entail:

• issues reviews
• PR reviews
• then migrating to Bulma and updating the generation script

@pombredanne yes the https://github.com/aboutcode-org/scancode-licensedb/pulls PRs are stale, we have corresponding PRs open in SCTK as that is where the static website lives:

• Improve scancode license_db #4411

Hi @pombredanne 👋

I’ve identified and am working on the outdated SCANCODE_DATA_BASE_URL in
src/scancode/api.py (the link still points to the legacy nexB org).

I’ll open a small PR shortly to update it to the current aboutcode-org path.

After that, I’d be happy to help with:

• reviewing/closing stale PRs in scancode-licensedb
• picking up small UI/UX fixes before any larger Bulma migration

Please let me know if that sounds good.
