Could you build this?

No The listing is a lure that name-drops JetBrains CLion, and the scraped text is only GitHub page boilerplate with no product content. A real CLion-class IDE needs years of C++ language-server, debugger, and build-system engineering.

What it would actually take: A real version would need a native desktop shell, a C/C++ parser and indexer (such as clangd-based tooling), a debugger integration (GDB/LLDB), CMake and build-system support, and a large plugin ecosystem. This is a multi-year team effort, not something vibe coding can produce.
