Could you build this?
Partial A macOS-style UI skin and dock can be built with standard desktop tooling, but deep Windows shell changes (taskbar, Explorer behavior, window management) need low-level Windows API work that is harder to vibe-code reliably.
What it would actually take: The UI layer is achievable with an AI-assisted app framework, but replacing or restyling the taskbar and Explorer requires Win32/COM hooks and sometimes DLL injection, which break across Windows updates. Solid Windows internals experience is needed to make it stable. Access to the macOS design language is only a styling question.
