Could you build this?
Partial While a desktop app wrapper (Electron/Tauri) with UI and music playback is vibe-codeable, realistic 3D turntable rendering, audio visualization sync, and OS-level media integration require specialized graphics work.
What it would actually take: The stack would likely use Electron or Tauri with Three.js/WebGL or a native engine like Godot/Unity, hooked into system audio APIs (or Spotify/Apple Music SDKs). The hard parts are syncing turntable physics/needle animation smoothly to system audio playback state and optimizing WebGL 3D asset rendering to run passively on the desktop with near-zero GPU/battery footprint.
