Partial The Codex plugin, prompt-driven element editing, and install flow are standard tooling that vibe coding can produce. The interactive Rust/WASM canvas renderer with editable .op files is a substantial graphics and performance problem that is harder to get right without specialist engineering.
What it would actually take: The plugin layer is a thin wrapper around the Codex plugin API and a file format. The hard part is the canvas engine: a Rust-to-WASM renderer (likely wgpu or a custom 2D rasterizer) with hit-testing, selection, undo/redo, and smooth zoom and pan on large documents. Building it well needs graphics programming and performance-tuning experience, along with an image generation API integration.
