From the README
An animation engine for explanatory math videos
Manim is an animation engine for explanatory math videos. It's used to create precise animations programmatically, as demonstrated in the videos of 3Blue1Brown.
Manim requires a few dependencies that must be installed prior to using it. If you want to try it out first before installing it locally, you can do so in our online Jupyter environment.
For local installation, please visit the Documentation and follow the appropriate instructions for your operating system.
