Could you build this?

Partial While the desktop launcher UI is easy to vibe-code, integrating disc dumping/recompilation toolchains and interfacing with the private xb.live protocol requires significant emulator/reverse-engineering expertise.

What it would actually take: The frontend can be built with Electron or Tauri, but it must orchestrate ISO extraction (XISO), run static recompiler pipelines, and integrate with xb.live network emulation (custom Kerberos/Xbox Live ticket authentication and UDP tunneling). Implementing the underlying recompilation pipeline and network stack requires reverse engineering and console systems expertise.
