      Description

      IGB App Store 2.0 is configured during migration / deployment steps to retrieve the top-of-the-page navigation menu bar from a bioviz code repository and deploy it within App Store.

      This is done to ensure a more streamlined, unified user experience.

      However, one problem is that the "Apps for IGB" link within the navigation bar is hard-coded to always link to apps.bioviz.org.

      This is of course the correct thing for the production site. But if you are deploying the appstore to a testing or development site, it would be better for this link to refer to the testing or development site itself, not the production site.

      To see the behavior in action, you can take a look at https://devappstore5.bioviz.org. Note that you will need to start the EC2 this is running on, as it is automatically shut down every evening. Or you can deploy it on your local.

      See the linked issue below for information on how adding the upper navigation bar was implemented.

            Sameer Shanbhag - Can you take a look? I would like to avoid hard-coding the URL search pattern if at all possible.

            I'm thinking it is very hard to review the change without the ability to see it in action! So I think we should proceed with a PR and check how it works "live" on the testing sites.
            Chirag Chandrahas Shetty - please submit PR when convenient.
