## About Page Redesign

### Hero

- "Own your markdown. Use it anywhere."
- Platform badges: Web, VS Code, Mac App, CLI, Chrome, MCP, QuickLook (clickable → plugins)
- 6-slide hero carousel with drag, arrows, dots, snap
  - WYSIWYG Editor, Chrome Extension, VS Code, Mac App, Beautiful Rendering, Math/Diagrams/Code

### Three Pillars → Independent Cards

- **Capture** — "Capture. Import. Paste." + 5 items + icon
- **Edit** — "Edit like a doc." + 5 items + icon
- **Share** — "Get a permanent URL." + 5 items + icon

### New Sections

- **Ecosystem flow diagram** — Sources → Surfaces → mdfy.cc/d/\* → Outputs (all clickable)
- **Vision: Where mdfy is going** — Today (Live) / Tomorrow (Coming Soon) / Beyond (Vision) with badges
- **Comparison: vs AI Memory Solutions** — mdfy vs Mem0, Letta, Notion AI (10 features)
- **Comparison: vs Markdown tools** — mdfy vs HackMD, StackEdit, Obsidian Publish, Gist (12 features)
- **Pricing: 4 tiers** — No Account, Beta (Free Now), Pro (After Beta), Build (Coming Q2 2026)
- **Manifesto link** — "The bigger picture" callout

### Design

- Section headings: accent orange color
- Image glow effects
- Lightbox (click to zoom)
- Visual break divider before Vision
- Transition text between sections

---

## Plugins Page

### CTA Buttons

- Each plugin card has header CTA + footer action area
- Header: prominent accent button (Add to Chrome, Install Extension, Download for Mac, etc.)
- Footer: primary button + outline secondary + text links (Quick Start Guide, View on npm, etc.)

### Fixed Issues

- MCP "Add to Claude" → now links to /docs/mcp (was /api/mcp showing blank)
- Desktop/QuickLook header download buttons → now use actual download URLs
- All footers have consistent button pattern

### Section Anchors

- All plugin sections have IDs for deep linking (#chrome, #vscode, #desktop, #cli, #mcp, #quicklook)

---

## Architecture: i18n Shared Components

### Pattern

```
src/lib/i18n/about.ts          ← EN/KO translations
src/components/AboutContent.tsx ← Shared structure
app/about/page.tsx              ← 19 lines (metadata + locale="en")
app/ko/about/page.tsx           ← 19 lines (metadata + locale="ko")
```

### Applied to

- About (AboutContent + i18n/about.ts)
- Manifesto (ManifestoContent + i18n/manifesto.ts)
- Plugins (PluginsContent + i18n/plugins.ts)

### Benefits

- Content change → edit translation file only
- Design change → edit component only
- Both languages auto-updated

---

## Welcome Overlay (New)

- 5-slide onboarding for first-time visitors
- Slide 1: Hero — "Own your markdown. Use it anywhere."
- Slide 2: Capture — paste, import, Chrome extension
- Slide 3: Edit — WYSIWYG, no syntax needed
- Slide 4: Share — permanent URL, one click
- Slide 5: Ecosystem — 6 surfaces with descriptions + plugins link

- Dismissed via localStorage, "Replay welcome tour" button on home screen

---
