Developing Discourse Themes & Theme Components

Docs seem a bit outdated in this part… (also api.modifyClass complains about pluginId missing). How can I run a script when about-page is loaded? This one doesn’t seem to work (no errors though). I had mixed results with some other components. Thanks.

<script type="text/discourse-plugin" version="0.11.1">

api.modifyClass("component:about-page", {
  pluginId: 'discourse-about-theme',

  didInsertElement() {
    this._super(...arguments);
    console.log("Welcome to the about page!");
  }

});

</script>
