Subject: [PATCH] Revamp the Home page of our app to start looking like what we
 want

This gets rid of the original placeholder blocks which I had gotten
from a tutorial and replaces it with placeholders that look more like
what we are going to want, (a list of hunts and a button to create a
new hunt).

While doing this, we provide some utility functions to create blocks
to reduce the amount of boilerplate we need while constructing these
things.
