    Bug reports:

    The entire Manim CE Logo example, the `x - x_1` text from the Brace Annotation example, all text from the Sin Cos Plot example, and the entire Heat Diagram example all flicker roughly once per second.

    The text looks rather fuzzy, especially the large M from the Manim CE Logo example.

    The Three D Light Source example also doesn't appear to have any functioning directional lighting.

    Motion Canvas is a mature / popular solution in the "manim but typescript" space for those unfamiliar.

    It can be used for interactive blog posts and embedded animations etc as well.

    It also has a built in animation editor / timeline.

      Please note that Motion Canvas is also abandoned, the main site is down, and the last commit was Dec 2024.

        Afaik it's considered "stable".

        There's 2800+ people in the discord.

        And the community made a backup of the site https://archive.canvascommons.io/

        Update: sounds like the author had some life changes and had to stop his YouTube channel which was the primary motivator for the library- but there are forks popping up (https://github.com/canvas-commons/canvas-commons).

        This notion that an open source library is "dead" and shouldn't be used because it's not being actively updated is a bit odd. You can fork and fix issues you have. It's got years of many people's work put into it. It's a great library and widely used on YouTube and elsewhere.

      How easy is it to replicate manim's style using motion canvas?

    Thank you! I regularly use Reveal.js to create interactive slide decks for my classes, and your project will be a great tool to have!

    Now someone’s going to write a react-manim renderer I’m sure.
