Could you build this?

Partial Basic primitives, grid snapping, and STL export are achievable with SceneKit or RealityKit, but robust CSG booleans, Apple Pencil sculpting, and polished AR placement need graphics expertise.

What it would actually take: Build natively in Swift with RealityKit or SceneKit, using a CSG library for booleans and ARKit for View in Room. The hard parts are reliable mesh boolean operations, smooth pen-based input, and performant mesh editing with undo, which usually require experienced graphics and geometry engineers.
