💡[Feature]: Integrate Devfolio Feature Directly into the website

Feature Description

Currently, our Defolio feature redirects users from the GitHub profile page to a separate repository/page (e.g., recode-awesome-profile).
This has several limitations:

The existing implementation relies on manually adding entries, which is time-consuming.

Users are taken away from the main site, breaking the experience.

Proposed Changes:

Embed Defolio directly within the main site instead of redirecting to another repo.

Use the same UI and layout as the current Defolio repository, but render it inline on the page.

Add Profile Submission Flow:

Add a button (e.g., Add Your GitHub Profile) on the Defolio section.

Clicking opens a form where users can submit their GitHub profile details.

Firebase Integration:

Store submissions, likes, and other metadata in Firebase.

Admin review panel to approve/reject profiles before they appear on the main page.

Acceptance Criteria:

Defolio section displays directly on the main page without redirect.

Submitted profiles only appear after admin approval.

Likes and profile data persist using Firebase Realtime Database or Firestore.

UI matches the existing Defolio repository design.

Use Case

Recode Hive - Google Chrome - 15 August 2025 - Watch Video
