Could you build this?
No Firefox is a massive, multi-decade C++/Rust web browser engine with millions of lines of code requiring hundreds of specialized systems engineers.
What it would actually take: Building a full web browser requires implementing Gecko/SpiderMonkey equivalents, comprehensive HTML/CSS/JS spec compliance, high-performance multi-process rendering, and graphics pipelines. The stack involves low-level C++, Rust, WebGPU/OpenGL integrations, and complex network protocols. It requires deep systems programming, security sandbox expertise, and hundreds of engineer-years.
