Existing Solutions

GitHub currently recommends repositories based on user activities like starring or following, supplemented by manual searches and built-in discovery features. However, these methods are typically time-consuming and may not accurately match user needs. GitGlance leverages advanced recommendation algorithms to offer more precise suggestions, improving upon existing solutions.

Target Audience

The primary audience for GitGlance is students eager to engage with open-source projects that match their expertise and interests.
