Partial The offline, keyboard-driven double-entry accounting core is vibe-codeable, but GST return generation, India e-invoicing, and ZATCA cryptographic e-invoicing require deep, changing tax and regulatory knowledge.
What it would actually take: The core would be a local-first app (for example Electron or Tauri with SQLite) implementing double-entry ledgers and Tally-compatible import. The hard parts are the GST return formats and e-invoice schemas, IRP and ZATCA integration with certificates and signing, and VAT rules, which need tax-compliance specialists and access to official specifications and sandboxes that are updated regularly.
