Sidebar application with extra styling

As a warm up, we'll stick to a simple layout with a sidebar for now. As we progress through this chapter, we'll change the layout and make it more like a modern dashboard. Because we're not doing too much in the way of features or layout in this first application, we'll add a few visual bells and whistles. Some of them will be dropped in later versions of the application just to stop the code and UI from becoming too cluttered, but you can of course write an application yourself with all of the UI elements in if you wish to. All of the code and data for the applications in this chapter is available at chrisbeeley.net/website/.
