Media Rotation/Carousel Feature

A new /carousel route can be used to rotate through media to advertise hiring, events, etc. Right now, the app will fetch media links from a public AWS S3 folder and pass them to the /carousel route to rotate the media. If there is no media, the site functions as normal. If there is media, it will set an inactivity timer to route to the /carousel page. Tapping/clicking the screen will cause it to go back to the main page where a user can interact with the homepage. The kiosks are set to refresh every ~5 minutes or so, so we don't need to worry about the inactivity timer not working when the user navigates away from the page.

TODO

• When the route is /sec, include it in the rotation since it does not have a touch screen
• Make main page either also included in the rotation, or add a text overlay that indicates users can interact with the screen
  • Potentially do both, that way if there is only one image for the carousel it will not just show that the whole time but rotate back to the homepage as well, and while the media is showing there will still be an indication that the user can interact with the screen
• Decide on appropriate interval times (for example, the main/sec routes have a ~2 minute video as the background, should we let it play through while rotating?)
• Delete hiring page files, as this kind of thing would be utilized via the media rotation in the future
• Add information about the AWS folder to the SO Training Manual
