The only realistic way to do it with limited resources might be to very much deviate from the Amiga way and make an Amiga like Linux distro with a Workbench like (but more modern) window manager, UAE seemlessly integrated, maybe some Amiga API:s rewritten one by one.
That way you get all the modernities through native Linux apps, but at the same time you can Amiga'ize it step by step. At first it would probably appear like not much more than an Amiga-skinned Linux, but over time it really could be transformed. Like Android for example which has a very distinct feeling today even though it's basically Linux and macOS though it basically used to be NeXT/BSD. Many 68k MacOS users were of course furious at first, having their darling OS replaced by a clunky and incompatible UNIX system.
