Could you build this?
Partial While the front-end dashboard is straightforward, gathering low-level Apple Silicon power, thermal, and GPU metrics requires interacting with private/undocumented IOKit and SMC APIs, plus custom P2P streaming infra.
What it would actually take: Requires an architecture consisting of a low-level Swift/C daemon querying macOS Mach kernel APIs, IOKit registry, SMC keys, and undocumented Apple Silicon performance counters alongside a lightweight TLS/P2P transport layer. The primary challenge is reverse-engineering or reliably binding to private Darwin/macOS telemetry APIs that change across OS versions without public documentation. Deep systems programming knowledge on macOS/Darwin is necessary.
