Could you build this?

No Creating a new programming language featuring an indentation-sensitive grammar, static type checker, and interpreter requires formal compiler design and language theory expertise.

What it would actually take: The implementation requires a compiler/interpreter pipeline typically built in Rust, C++, or OCaml consisting of a layout-aware lexer, AST parser, static type inferencer, and an evaluation runtime or bytecode VM. The hard engineering pieces are designing a sound type system, indentation-aware syntax ambiguity resolution, and robust diagnostics with compile-time guarantees. This necessitates specialized expertise in programming language theory (PLT) and compiler construction.
