Could you build this?
Partial The TypeScript authoring API, CLI, and agent tooling are vibe-codeable, but the core GPU compositor that renders frames fast without a browser needs graphics-engineering expertise.
What it would actually take: The architecture is a Node/TypeScript front end for scene authoring plus a native compositor, likely Rust with wgpu, that draws frames on the GPU and encodes video through FFmpeg. The hard parts are the GPU rendering pipeline, text and SVG rasterization, and matching Remotion-compatible semantics, which need graphics and compiler experience.
