Bug in version 0.39.0: Custom project description, which is specified in the project_description variable, is not displayed

[dejavu284]

On the main page of feast ui, it says:

"Note: We encourage you to replace this welcome message with more suitable content for your team. You can do so by specifying a project_description in your feature_store.yaml file.". This doesn't work.

Expected Behavior: The description specified in the project_description variable is displayed on the feast ui home page.

Current Behavior: Currently, if you try to replace the default project description by adding your own description to the project_description field, the description on the main page remains default.

Steps to reproduce

• Create new conda env: conda create -n feast-mvp
• Install python: conda install python==3.9.13
• Install feast: pip install feast==0.39.0
• Create a feature_store.yaml file:
  "
  project: feature_store_DEV
  project_description: Check if the project description is displayed
  ...
  "
• Open feast ui: feast -f feature_store.yaml ui --port 8080

Specifications

• Version: 0.39.0
• Platform: windows
• Subsystem: wsl ubuntu

Possible Solution: Implement in the code to replace the base description with the description from the project_description field
