Could you build this?
Partial A basic browser canvas with brushes and a frame timeline is vibe-codeable, but a usable animation studio needs a performant raster engine, vector tools and smooth playback, which are hard to get right with AI-generated code alone.
What it would actually take: The UI and timeline can be built with HTML canvas or WebGL plus a state store. The hard parts are a low-latency raster brush engine, a robust vector path system, and onion-skinning/playback performance on large frame sets. Building it well requires graphics programming experience and iterative performance tuning.
