Could you build this?
Partial The UI and search directory are standard, but continuously scraping, ingesting, and updating metadata, pricing changes, and rankings for 2 million iOS apps without getting blocked requires substantial crawler infrastructure.
What it would actually take: Requires a distributed crawler architecture using headless browser clusters or direct iTunes enterprise search scraping proxies to bypass Apple's rate-limiting and bot detection across millions of SKUs. The backend demands a high-throughput pipeline (Kafka/ClickHouse or Elasticsearch) to index and refresh prices, version updates, and deal alerts daily across 2M apps.
