ManimGL

ManimGL is an open-source Python animation engine for creating precise programmatic animations, particularly explanatory mathematics videos. Scenes can contain shapes, equations, and transformations and can be rendered to video or displayed in an OpenGL window. This repository is the original Manim project created by the author of 3Blue1Brown; it is distinct from the later Manim Community Edition. The package is installed as `manimgl`, runs on Python 3.10 or higher, and uses FFmpeg and OpenGL, with LaTeX optional for LaTeX rendering.

What ManimGL is used for

2 uses taken from transcripts — each links to the moment in the video.

  • An open-source Python engine for creating precise programmatic animations, especially explanatory math videos. Scenes containing shapes, equations, and transformations can be rendered to video or displayed in a live OpenGL window.

  • A Python-based programmatic animation engine for creating precise, reproducible mathematics videos. Scenes are defined as Python classes with shapes, graphs, and formulas, then rendered using FFmpeg and OpenGL.
