Partial The browser builder, SDK, and curated machine library are standard web app work, but a useful version depends on the OP-XY's machine file format and audio engine, which are proprietary and must be reverse-engineered or obtained from the device.
What it would actually take: A web front end (likely TypeScript/React) would sit on top of a parser and writer for the OP-XY's machine/patch format, plus a browser audio engine for previewing sounds. The hard parts are reverse-engineering the binary or proprietary preset format and matching the device's sound-generation behavior closely enough that presets sound right. That takes audio DSP knowledge and access to real hardware for verification.
