Sweet!! Thanks for adding this!
From the screenshot, I think this could benefit from some style tweaks. The margin is a bit disproportionate; probably should be larger between the projects and smaller between the project name and branch. This is fine in a secondary pass.

This seems fine right now (especially since its unlikely for there to be large number of projects and branches), but it'd be cool if the backend could support fetching both projects and branches in one go instead of an extra request for each branch, cc @ChrisPenner

Yeah that makes sense, this'll be fine for now (esp. since all of these requests are just to localhost)
Problem
When opening the homepage you are presented with an instruction to run the
uicommand in a project in UCM. This message can be confusing if you navigate to the homepage or if you have started a headless instance of UCM and connected to it with the development server.Solution
This solution lists the projects and each branch on the homepage for easier navigation.
Caveats/Notes
It was decided together with @hojberg to not use the
ProjectListingcomponent since it takes a Unison Share project as a parameter, but local projects are of another (simpler) type. There might be a way to put together these two project concepts, but it is out of scope for this PR.
