Could you build this?

Partial Practice pages, timers, and auto-checking of simple tasks can be vibe-coded. Faithful browser simulators of five Office applications with accurate grading are a large build that is hard to get right.

What it would actually take: A basic version would use a web front end with mock spreadsheet, document, slide, and mail editors, and checkers that compare the saved file state against expected results. The hard part is building simulators whose behavior matches real Office closely enough that tests transfer. That needs a lot of UI engineering and Office domain knowledge, and it takes weeks of iteration.
