Could you build this?
Partial Creating a 3D Three.js gallery with e-commerce links is vibe-codeable, but analyzing 90 million chess games (billions of moves) to generate generative data art requires serious data processing pipelines.
What it would actually take: The art creation requires an ETL pipeline (DuckDB, ClickHouse, or Apache Spark) crunching massive PGN archives from Lichess/Chess.com to extract spatial coordinates and heatmaps, rendered via canvas/SVG pipelines. The web presentation uses Three.js/React Three Fiber with optimized 3D assets, lighting, and an Etsy checkout integration.
