    Bug reports:<p>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.<p>The text looks rather fuzzy, especially the large M from the Manim CE Logo example.<p>The Three D Light Source example also doesn&#x27;t appear to have any functioning directional lighting.

    Motion Canvas is a mature &#x2F; popular solution in the &quot;manim but typescript&quot; space for those unfamiliar.<p>It can be used for interactive blog posts and embedded animations etc as well.<p>It also has a built in animation editor &#x2F; timeline.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;motion-canvas&#x2F;motion-canvas" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;motion-canvas&#x2F;motion-canvas</a>

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

        Afaik it&#x27;s considered &quot;stable&quot;.<p>There&#x27;s 2800+ people in the discord.<p>And the community made a backup of the site <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;archive.canvascommons.io&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;archive.canvascommons.io&#x2F;</a><p>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 (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;canvas-commons&#x2F;canvas-commons" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;canvas-commons&#x2F;canvas-commons</a>).<p>---<p>This notion that an open source library is &quot;dead&quot; and shouldn&#x27;t be used because it&#x27;s not being actively updated is a bit odd. You can fork and fix issues you have. It&#x27;s got years of many people&#x27;s work put into it. It&#x27;s a great library and widely used on YouTube and elsewhere.

      How easy is it to replicate manim&#x27;s style using motion canvas?

        Someone wrote a blog about their journey <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;slama.dev&#x2F;motion-canvas&#x2F;introduction&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;slama.dev&#x2F;motion-canvas&#x2F;introduction&#x2F;</a><p>But- probably reasonably simple, if you mean the &quot;writing&quot; style of manim. That&#x27;s just animating an SVG stroke.<p>And then colors and typography

    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!

    Amazing!! This is a project I&#x27;ve wanted to tackle for years but never got the chance to properly do.

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