# T01: Added /about page with three content sections (what, how, who) and an About link in the footer

**Added /about page with three content sections (what, how, who) and an About link in the footer**

## What Happened

Created About.tsx with three sections: what Chrysopedia is, a five-step pipeline breakdown explaining how content is extracted, and a maintainer section linking to the xpltd GitHub org and repo. Added the /about route in App.tsx between admin routes and the fallback. Added an About link as the last item in AppFooter.tsx using react-router-dom Link. Added .about-* styles in App.css following existing BEM and custom property patterns, including a responsive breakpoint for the hero title.

## Verification

npx tsc --noEmit passed with zero errors. npm run build produced the production bundle successfully (47 modules, no warnings).

## Verification Evidence

| # | Command | Exit Code | Verdict | Duration |
|---|---------|-----------|---------|----------|
| 1 | `cd frontend && npx tsc --noEmit` | 0 | ✅ pass | 2200ms |
| 2 | `cd frontend && npm run build` | 0 | ✅ pass | 1200ms |
