Could you build this?
Partial The letter-writing, encrypted messaging, and animated map UI are vibe-codeable, but the claim of routing letters through real post offices requires postal logistics data or partnerships that code alone can't provide.
What it would actually take: A simulated version can be built with an iOS/web client, end-to-end encryption using libsodium or similar, and a map library. A real version would need integrations with postal carriers or postal operators for tracking events, plus a physical-mail fulfillment partner. The hard part is access to that logistics data and the operational relationships behind it.
