Could you build this?

No Building a full-scale BitTorrent client like µTorrent requires deep networking expertise, implementing complex distributed protocols, DHT, peer wire protocols, and high-performance asynchronous I/O.

What it would actually take: The stack typically uses C++ or Rust with asynchronous I/O frameworks (libuv, Tokio) or existing libraries like libtorrent, coupled with a desktop GUI (Qt/Electron). The difficult engineering problems include NAT traversal (UPnP, NAT-PMP, STUN), distributed hash tables (Kademlia DHT), piece selection algorithms, and high-bandwidth socket multiplexing without memory leaks. Developing this from scratch requires systems and network engineering expertise.
