Read the full description
Buying mechanical keyboard switches is a guessing game. Specs and YouTube videos don't tell you how a switch will sound and feel on your own desk. Switch Lab lets you press 100 switches with real recorded sounds, put them on a 3D keyboard, and swap between them instantly to compare. Filter by type, weight and sound, then test your pick with typing practice and mini games (typing marathon, drum stems, metro typing). No install, works on phone and desktop.

Partial The 3D keyboard, filtering, and comparison UI are vibe-codeable. The sound library, however, requires physically recording many switches with consistent rigs, which is hardware-dependent data that doesn't exist on the web.
What it would actually take: Build the front end with Three.js for the 3D board and Web Audio for playback and switching. The core asset is a consistent, high-quality recording of around 100 switches, which needs a microphone rig, a sound-treated space, a standardized press-and-record procedure, and audio processing to normalize levels.
