User Story

We need to find the original requirements for this tool, and determine which of those functional requirements are met in the current Atlas tool, and which were not prioritized in the original MVP work.

Possible solutions: 1) Add documentation to README 2) Add an about page aka "What is Platform Atlas?"

Why was this created? What is its purpose? How is it maintained? Potential future capabilities? What teams are currently using Atlas and how are they using atlas? What repositories contribute to Atlas and how are the repos contributing?

EX: Currently Platform Atlas serves for two purposes. Platform Atlas hosts the VFS Individual and Team Roster database and is the source of truth for Vets-API CODEOWNERS.

VFS Roster Info

Maintaining CODEOWNERS

Potential Possibilities .....

The Atlas user manual is currently in confluence. We may also want to add an Instructions page to Atlas and/or add this to the README.
