Could you build this?

No A read/write NTFS driver requires low-level filesystem expertise, including on-disk structure parsing, journaling, and data-integrity guarantees. Getting it wrong risks data loss, and it needs Apple FSKit internals knowledge.

What it would actually take: The build requires implementing or porting an NTFS parser and writer in a FSKit extension, handling MFT, attributes, journaling, and compressed or encrypted files. It needs deep filesystem and macOS system-extension expertise, plus extensive testing against corrupt and hibernated volumes. Mature open-source work like ntfs-3g is the reference point for this effort.
