Nice! Is there a steep learning curve with Manim? How long did it take to create that video?

- mrdonbrown 6y agoSadly, it took me a few hours, but only because I went down a rabbit hole of trying to render a colorized code snippet without knowing the Code class existed. I got to the point of a custom Tex template that used listings, only to find out Manim strips any color, so I attempted to parse the SVG and reinsert color using Manim APIs... only to find out Code did everything I wanted and more :) Once I found out about Code, I'd say probably 15 minutes to land on the opacity strategy and a few minutes to learn how to control the camera, so in the end, not bad. The limiting factor is now figuring out what I want it to do in the first place.
