@ellery does this problem still exist? When I try to see preview in Firefox, it works fine.

Yes. I am using version 43.0.4 on a mac

@schana It may be worth transferring the UI to bootstrap, which more people are familiar with.

@ellery - the root cause for this is most likely that in Firefox sometimes CORS is disabled. The preview comes from RESTBase, so CORS is required since that's hosted on a separate domain. One way to fix this would be to build a Flask endpoint and query that from the UI instead of querying RESTBase directly. That way python's the one doing the CORS (and it has no problem doing that as far as I know).
