Could you build this?
Partial A website explaining diesel shortages is easy to build, but its value depends on accurate, current supply data that vibe coding cannot provide.
What it would actually take: The site itself is a simple content front end. The hard part is a reliable, continuously updated data pipeline for fuel supply and shortage figures, which requires licensed government, industry, or station-level sources. Someone would need to find and maintain those feeds and verify them editorially.
