Upgrade all dependencies on web3/web3-* v1.0.0-beta.37 to v1.2.1. Make various adjustments related to the previous convention of `"web3": "1.0.0-beta"` in `embark.json` signifying that embark's own web3 dependency should be used in dapp builds. Fix bugs in library manager, including a switch from using the live-plugin-manager package to using npm in a child process to install `"versions"` dependencies specified in `embark.json` when a specified version doesn't match up with embark's own version for that package. Avoid race conditions when installing `"versions"` by completing all installs prior to starting other services. If an install fails, then after all the installs have completed or failed the embark command will exit with error. Change various comments and update docs to reflect the new default of web3 v1.2.1. |

What is Embark
Embark is a framework that allows you to easily develop and deploy Decentralized Applications (DApps).
A Decentralized Application is a serverless html5 application that uses one or more decentralized technologies.
Embark currently integrates with EVM blockchains (Ethereum), Decentralized Storages (IPFS), and Decentralized communication platforms (Whisper and Orbit). Swarm is supported for deployment.
With Embark you can:
Blockchain (Ethereum)
- Automatically deploy contracts and make them available in your JS code. Embark watches for changes, and if you update a contract, Embark will automatically redeploy the contracts (if needed) and the dapp.
- Contracts are available in JS with Promises.
- Do Test Driven Development with Contracts using Javascript.
- Keep track of deployed contracts; deploy only when truly needed.
- Manage different chains (e.g testnet, private net, livenet)
- Easily manage complex systems of interdependent contracts.
Decentralized Storage (IPFS, Swarm)
- Easily Store & Retrieve Data on the DApp through EmbarkJS. Including uploading and retrieving files.
- Deploy the full application to IPFS or Swarm.
- Import and deploy contracts hosted on Swarm.
Decentralized Communication (Whisper, Orbit)
- Easily send/receive messages through channels in P2P through Whisper or Orbit.
Web Technologies
- Integrate with any web technology including React, Foundation, etc..
- Use any build pipeline or tool you wish, including grunt, gulp and webpack.
