Could you build this?

No A RAW photo developer and photo management tool requires low-level image processing pipelines, demosaicing algorithms, color space math, and camera sensor profile handling.

What it would actually take: Requires building an image processing engine in C/C++ or Rust using libraries like LibRaw or custom Bayer demosaicing routines, ICC color management, GPU-accelerated tone curves/LUT transformations, and a native Linux desktop UI (GTK/Qt). Deep domain knowledge in digital signal processing, sensor mechanics, and computational photography is essential.

Same idea, different domain

Nobody's really built a workflow automation tool for Agriculture yet.

{# Ad rails are position:fixed (see app.css's .sponsor-rail), so moving them after
in source order is purely cosmetic for the DOM -- visually they stay pinned left/right exactly as before. Put here so a linear text reader (an automated site-verification crawler, a screen reader, a search engine) hits the real page content first instead of a wall of repeated "Open slot" ad-placeholder filler before ever reaching a sentence about what Nicheloom is. #}
