Could you build this?
Partial The front-end editor and prompting flow are straightforward, but generating accurate, high-quality, editable structured SVGs from complex academic/scientific concepts requires custom graphic synthesis pipelines beyond standard text-to-image models.
What it would actually take: Needs a tailored pipeline that combines LLM semantic structuring (producing graphs/DAGs or layout primitives in formats like Mermaid/Graphviz/D3) with customized SVG generation and vector element post-processing. A web canvas (Fabric.js, SVG.js, or Konva) is required for interactive node manipulation and vector layer editing.
