Could you build this?
No A native Discord client needs a reverse-engineered, undocumented Discord gateway and voice stack, including end-to-end encrypted voice, plus a custom native rendering layer. Those pieces require deep protocol and systems expertise, and the project also carries account-ban risk.
What it would actually take: A real version would need a native UI toolkit (here Dear ImGui), a Discord gateway and REST client built by reverse-engineering the protocol, and a voice implementation with the DAVE/E2EE stack. The hard parts are keeping up with undocumented API changes and implementing voice encryption correctly, which requires networking and cryptography expertise.
