Partial The Apple TV-style home UI is vibe-codeable as a web app, but installing and running it on rooted LG webOS TVs requires device-specific system-level work.
What it would actually take: The UI can be built in React and packaged as a webOS app. Deploying it to rooted TVs needs firmware-specific root methods and install tooling, which requires embedded Linux knowledge. Testing across LG models and firmware versions requires physical hardware.
