We would need more inputs to get started on the project @OldSlayer1903.

Idea seems great though. I had a thought.
Should we start collecting some resources and reading materials to know about existing projects in the market ? and create a concrete plan of implementation and what all features we require as well as NFRs.

Great thought. @DrOptimistic
I'll open an issue to track this task, so we do not bombard this discussion with random links and resources.
