Could you build this?
Partial A double-entry local ledger, desktop UI, and macOS/Windows packaging are vibe-codeable, but the planned personal tax module needs tax-law expertise that vibe coding can't supply, and accounting correctness demands careful validation.
What it would actually take: Build with Tauri or Electron over a SQLite double-entry ledger with immutable journal entries, bank import (CSV/OFX), reconciliation, and code-signed installers. The hard parts are accounting correctness and, for tax, jurisdiction-specific rules that need a CPA or tax specialist to define and verify.
