Summary

Replaces the hardcoded contributor list/avatar map on the About Us page with a live fetch from the backend, and adds a click-to-view profile dialog (bio, education, major, contribution breakdown).

Supersedes #63, which had the same goal but has been unmergeable since #77 rebuilt the page with the current dark theme in April — a literal merge would have reverted that redesign. This reimplements the same underlying idea against the current page instead.

Why #63 stalled

  • Its fetch used process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_REDUX_BASE_URL, which was never set — this app fetches through the same-origin /api/redux/ proxy (pages/api/redux/[...path].js) backed by a server-only REDUX_BASE_URL env var. That's almost certainly why the contributor list didn't populate when @Trosper3 tested it in May.
  • The backend endpoints it depends on (Navigation/ContributorProfile/directory and .../{name}) do exist and work — added in ReduxISU/Redux alongside About Us: replace hardcoded contributor list with live API fetch + clickable profile modal #63 and extended in April.

What changed

  • components/redux/index.js: added requestContributorDirectory and requestContributorProfile, matching the existing requestAllProblems-style helpers (cached, hit Navigation/ContributorProfile/... through the proxy).
  • pages/aboutus/index.js: contributor names and GitHub avatar/links now come from the directory fetch instead of a hardcoded array/object. Clicking a name opens a dialog (styled to match the current dark theme) with the contributor's bio/education/major/contributions, lazy-fetched on click. Falls back to a plain message if the backend is unreachable.
  • Also fixed a pre-existing duplicate slotProps prop on the contributor Tooltip that ESLint was already flagging on ReduxAPI_GUI (unrelated to this feature, but touched while in the file).

Testing done

  • next build and eslint . both pass.
  • Verified in a real browser via Playwright: with no backend reachable, the page falls back to "Contributor list unavailable right now." without crashing (confirmed the 502 is logged, not swallowed silently). With the backend responses mocked, the list renders and clicking a name opens the profile dialog with the fetched bio/contributions.

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

The contributor list and GitHub links were hardcoded in the frontend,
requiring a code change for every new contributor. The backend already
exposes Navigation/ContributorProfile/directory and .../{name} (added
alongside PR #63, which went stale after the page's dark-theme redesign
in #77 made a literal merge impossible without reverting that redesign).

Fetches the directory through the existing /api/redux proxy on mount and
opens a profile dialog with bio/education/contributions on click, styled
to match the current page. Also fixes a pre-existing duplicate slotProps
prop on the contributor Tooltip that ESLint was already flagging.
