Could you build this?
Partial The browser UI and uploads are easy to vibe-code, but opening 940+ file formats client-side requires many specialized parsers and rendering libraries, and the full format coverage is a large engineering effort.
What it would actually take: The architecture is a web app that loads format-specific parsers and renderers compiled to WebAssembly, using existing libraries for common formats like PDF and Office documents. The hard part is integrating and maintaining hundreds of niche decoders such as 3D models, fonts, databases, and archives. That needs deep knowledge of file format specifications and significant testing.
