Could you build this?

Partial The wiki interface and basic Git synchronization can be vibe-coded (as Folio itself acknowledges), but building a reliable real-time collaborative editor with CRDTs, block-level Git reconciliation, and whiteboards requires complex distributed state engineering.

What it would actually take: A robust implementation needs a CRDT framework (Yjs or Automerge) over WebSockets for multi-user real-time document and canvas editing. The difficult architectural piece is bridging asynchronous multi-user CRDT document states with bidirectional Git commits and branch merges, resolving merge conflicts cleanly between real-time browser states and arbitrary Git file commits without corrupting structured markdown or block hierarchies.
