Could you build this?
Partial The web UI, export flow, and avatar viewer are vibe-codeable, but turning a photo or prompt into a rigged, animation-ready 3D character needs generative 3D models, auto-rigging, and retargeting that a vibe-coded app cannot supply on its own.
What it would actually take: Build a web front end (three.js or Babylon.js) on top of a third-party image-to-3D or text-to-3D API (e.g., Meshy, Tripo, or Rodin) for mesh generation. Add an auto-rigging step that maps a 22-bone skeleton, probably via a rigging service or a trained model, and a retargeting pipeline that applies a 160+ animation library to that skeleton. Export to FBX/GLB/VRM with format-specific conversion for VRChat and Unity. The hard parts are reliable rigging and face/body quality from a single photo, which need 3D-graphics and ML pipeline expertise plus animation assets, not just prompting.
