#481 Say what OpenChronology is in one sentence, on the home page and in the FAQ

[Anonymous]

Originally created by: athanclark

AI answers quote self-contained sentences. Neither of the two places that say what the project is says it in one sentence with its name:

• The home page: its H1 is a slogan, "Any span of time, on one exact line". The paragraph under it begins "Build timelines from deep time…" without naming OpenChronology.
• The FAQ's "What is OpenChronology?" (/help/faq) answers "A timeline editor. You place events…".

Wanted: both start with a sentence that works on its own, such as:

OpenChronology is a free, open-source timeline editor for exact dates at any scale, from deep time to fractions of a second, with sources on every event.

On the home page it can sit under the H1, which stays a slogan for people. In the FAQ it replaces "A timeline editor." The same sentence can serve as the GitHub repository's description and the llms.txt summary, so the descriptions agree everywhere.
