Could you build this?

No Developing a high-performance native macOS download manager with 16 parallel dynamic TCP socket splits, stateful chunk assembly, a native browser extension companion, and a full BitTorrent client requires low-level systems and network programming.

What it would actually take: The app requires native Swift/Objective-C with low-level networking (Network.framework, POSIX sockets, or libcurl), an embedded BitTorrent engine (e.g., libtorrent via C++ bridging), and complex file I/O handling for non-contiguous disk writes and dynamic byte-range re-splitting. It also requires a WebExtension communicating via Native Messaging to intercept browser downloads and session cookies. Building this requires specialized systems software engineering and network protocol expertise.
