Could you build this?

Partial A web app plus a Node service that installs apps on Samsung TVs is buildable, but it depends on niche Tizen packaging, signing, and sdb protocol knowledge that vibe coding may not get right without platform expertise.

What it would actually take: The stack is a Tizen web app for the TV UI and a Node service that talks to the TV over the sdb protocol to push packaged apps. The hard parts are Samsung's developer-mode and certificate-signing requirements and the undocumented edges of the install flow. Building it reliably needs hands-on testing against real TV hardware and familiarity with Tizen tooling.
