Could you build this?
Partial The recorder UI, video trimmer, and basic playback controls are straightforward to build, but smooth automatic cursor tracking and dynamic zoom interpolation require complex video processing pipelines.
What it would actually take: A production version requires a desktop app (using Electron, Tauri, or native Swift/C++) capturing OS-level mouse coordinates alongside raw screen frames. The hardest part is the post-processing compositor, which must interpolate cursor coordinates into smooth camera bezier curves and render multi-resolution zooms using WebCodecs or FFmpeg without dropping frames.
