Demo site: page language has not been identified

[elynema]

Error from SiteImprove:

The main language of the page has not been declared within the element. Language tags tell screen readers how to pronounce the text on a page.

If language tags are missing or mistyped, the screen reader will revert to its default pronunciation settings. This could result in a strange or confusing experience for users who access content in more than one language.

See more details in SiteImprove.

Original thoughts:

You'd think that this would be an easy fix but we don't directly control the head element in the index and app/index pages. These pages are generated using a template that is buried inside a set of JS libraries (FESK) used to build the app. It might be possible to override the template but I haven't been successful so far.

Updated:

In #60 I worked around this by overriding the entire generated html pages. This makes the nunjucks templates useless since they are getting entirely overwritten. The process for updating might be to update the nunjucks templates, run yarn fesk-build and then copying dist/index.html and dist/app/index.html out to overrides/dist and reapplying the customizations.

This is resolve on timeliner-staging; SiteImprove browser plugin is no longer complaining.
