I have a working package browser now and will be styling it next. I'll link to 
a public repository later.

However, I have some questions about the Data Service:

1. Is there any way to page through the data (e.g. 
https://dev.socrata.com/docs/paging.html#2.1)?
2. What would be an efficient way to get the total count of packages? (to be 
used as in https://guix.gnu.org/en/packages/)
3. Is there any way to get the "supported-systems" info of a package?
