Could you build this?
Partial Building a cross-platform (Web, Windows, Android), offline-first smartboard app with low-latency stylus drawing requires high-performance canvas handling and native platform integrations.
What it would actually take: The app needs an offline-first storage and synchronization layer (e.g., SQLite/CRDTs via ElectricSQL or Yjs) paired with an optimized rendering pipeline using Skia, WebGL, or Canvas API to support high-DPI, ultra-low latency stylus input and palm rejection across touchscreens. Cross-platform distribution requires Flutter, Electron/Capacitor, or native wrappers, with substantial hardware testing on smartboard displays.

Same idea, different domain
Nobody's really built a workflow automation tool for Agriculture yet.
