Partial A basic three.js-based splat viewer is vibe-codeable, but a performant WebGPU splat renderer needs graphics expertise for GPU sorting, compute pipelines, and format handling.
What it would actually take: The stack is three.js WebGPURenderer/TSL plus custom WebGPU compute shaders and typed-array data layouts for millions of Gaussians. The hard parts are GPU radix sorting, view-dependent splat culling and blending, and cross-backend fallback to WebGL2. This needs a graphics engineer familiar with real-time rendering, not just prompting.
