No Decrypting FairPlay-protected App Store binaries means circumventing Apple's DRM and working with low-level iOS and Mach-O internals, which is specialized security and reverse engineering work.
What it would actually take: The tool depends on extracting decrypted binaries from a device that has the app installed, which involves platform-specific mechanisms and parsing Mach-O formats. Keeping it working across iOS versions requires ongoing low-level maintenance. I'm not going into specifics beyond that.
