Could you build this?
Partial A basic browser UI with Canvas/WebGL is easy, but implementing robust astrophotography image registration (star detection, alignment, homography, stacking, foreground masking) and high-bit-depth TIFF rendering entirely client-side requires advanced computer vision and WebAssembly engineering.
What it would actually take: The architecture would rely on WebAssembly (compiled C++ or Rust using OpenCV or custom astrophotography algorithms) paired with WebGPU/WebGL for high-throughput image manipulation in the browser. The hard parts are detecting star centroids across fixed-tripod rotations, computing perspective transforms to align noisy high-ISO RAW/TIFF frames, and managing multi-gigabyte memory limits in desktop browsers without crashing.
