Could you build this?
No Building Compiz-style wobbly window physics on macOS requires private WindowServer APIs, low-level macOS accessibility or CoreGraphics event taps, and real-time mesh deformation shaders hooking into macOS window rendering.
What it would actually take: Implementation requires reverse-engineering private macOS WindowServer hooks or running a daemon using Quartz/CoreGraphics event taps to track window move events, capture window contents, and project them onto dynamic spring-mass 3D meshes rendered via Metal. Managing permissions, SIP (System Integrity Protection) boundaries, and seamless rendering performance across native macOS windows requires deep graphics programming and macOS internals expertise.
