Could you build this?

Partial While basic text editing is easy, building an industry-grade screenplay studio with real-time multi-user operational transformation / CRDTs, precise page pagination, and lossless FDX (Final Draft) parsing requires complex engineering.

What it would actually take: The architecture requires a custom rich-text editor engine (built on ProseMirror or Lexical) with strict screenplay formatting pagination algorithms, real-time collaboration using Yjs or Liveblocks over WebSockets, and a robust parser/compiler for Final Draft XML (.fdx) and Fountain formats. Handling simultaneous multi-cursor editing without breaking standard screenplay layout constraints demands specialized document-model engineering.
