Could you build this?
No Building a high-performance native Mac/iPad image editor with Bézier vector paths, layers, masks, Photoshop ABR parsing, and GPU-accelerated graphics requires deep computer graphics and systems engineering.
What it would actually take: A real implementation requires low-level graphics programming using Apple's Metal framework, custom rendering pipelines, and C++/Swift performance optimization. Developing features like ABR parser support, fast rasterization algorithms, and memory management for multi-gigapixel layered files demands specialized computer graphics engineering that cannot be vibe-coded.
