Could you build this?

Partial The client UI and network requests are simple, but the core functionality relies on reverse engineering the proprietary campus water dispenser app protocol, authentication, and Bluetooth/HTTP communication.

What it would actually take: The solution requires a mobile or desktop client (e.g., Flutter, Python, or Go) communicating with school water dispenser IoT devices. The critical challenge is the prior reverse engineering: decompiling Android APKs (e.g., using jadx, Frida) to extract encrypted API signatures, token handshakes, or Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) GATT service protocols required to trigger water dispensing.
