Not sure about the parent here, but I was certainly considering longer term. I would expect early on that there would be high tech tools and items brought on the ship or built form parts of the ship. Actually setting up local production from local resources (beyond what could be constructed on the ship) would probably take some time. Longer term though.. is it practically/economically feasible to build and run a chip fab capable of building modern ARM CPUs for the needs of 10,000 people? What about the rest of the manufacturing chain for these sorts of devices? Or is the only reason we can buy a smartphone today for a few hundred dollars because of the economies of scale of building tens of millions of them on a 2 year replacement cycle?
