Could you build this?
No Building a native IDE with a debugger, code insight for 60+ languages, Git, terminal, and database clients is an enormous engineering effort that vibe coding cannot substitute for.
What it would actually take: A real version needs a Rust native UI framework, a text buffer and editor core, language servers (LSP) or parsers for code intelligence, debugger adapters (DAP) for each language, a Git library integration, an embedded terminal emulator, and database and HTTP client modules. Each subsystem is a substantial project. It requires a team of experienced compiler, editor, and systems engineers working over years.
