What happens to student projects after a hackathon ends?

I've been thinking about this for a while.

Students spend hours - sometimes days - building something for a hackathon. They submit it, maybe win something, and then... what?

The project usually ends up sitting in a GitHub repo, an old Google Drive folder, or getting buried in a LinkedIn post.

We're building InSolze to change that.

It's a platform where students can publish both their hackathon and personal projects, connect GitHub and live deployments, share updates, collect feedback, and track how their project grows - including users and real-world impact.

Over time, it also becomes a record of what they built, where they built it, and how their work evolved.

We're still early and honestly trying to figure out whether this is something students actually need.

So I want the honest answer:

Would you use this?
What would you want to see on a platform like this? And if you think this is a bad idea - tell me why.
