Redirect /about.html to atomicdesign.bradfrost.com #53

Closed bradfrost closed 7 years ago

bradfrost commented 8 years ago

Right now there are quite a few inbound links on the internet to http://patternlab.io/about.html as it provides an overview of what atomic design is. For simplicity's sake, I'd prefer to point people to http://atomicdesign.bradfrost.com/chapter-2/

Because we want to host the PL website on Github, we may need to do a client-side redirect rather than a server-side redirect. @bmuenzenmeyer do you happen to know if Github provides .htaccess access or anything like that? It's not the worst thing in the world to do a JS redirect.

bmuenzenmeyer commented 8 years ago

I can't say I've ever encountered .htaccess in the documentation, but this looks promising!

Edit: On second read through, this might only redirect from one page to another within the same Jekyll site :-1:

Oh hey, how about that! Thanks a bunch.

I'm going to close this out, as I haven't heard people complain either here or to me personally about this issue.
