Could you build this?
Partial The iOS library app with browsing, favorites, collections, and build tracking is standard and vibe-codeable. The papercraft models themselves require paper-engineering design, which is a specialized craft.
What it would actually take: Build a native iOS app with a catalog backend, user collections, and printable PDF delivery with membership billing. The hard part is creating a large library of accurate, well-engineered papercraft templates with tabs, folds, and build-time ratings. That needs trained paper engineers and a sustained content pipeline.
