Could you build this?

Partial A basic text editor UI is vibe-codeable, but a full UltraEdit equivalent needs large-file handling, encoding support, hex editing, and performance tuning that go beyond simple AI-generated code. The listing is a repackaged installer.

What it would actually take: Start with a native or Electron/Tauri shell and a rope or piece-table buffer for large files. Full parity needs robust encoding detection, a hex view, search/replace with regex at scale, and plugin support. Systems-level performance work and encoding expertise are the hard parts.
