Description

To verify frontend code changes, one need to build the source and re-deploy the target to Tomcat. It is not so efficient for frontend development.
We can start a static web server and proxy `/kylin/api/**` to the existing Kylin service and automatically refresh the static web server after source code being changed. By doing so, we can make the frontend development easier.
