Could you build this?
Partial A social feed UI that displays lightweight mini-apps is vibe-codeable, but secure, performant sandboxing of arbitrary AI-generated code across mobile and web is technically challenging.
What it would actually take: Architecture requires a mobile web/native wrapper (React Native or Flutter) paired with secure isolated iframes or WebAssembly/V8 isolates for running untrusted user-generated code. The hard parts are multi-tenant sandboxing to prevent XSS/data leakage, low-latency mobile rendering of dynamic interactive canvases, and a reliable code generation/remixing pipeline that produces crash-free interactive apps.
