I made my own animation library (in Python). It's awesome.
In this video, I show five of the cool features I'm really excited to use, and five of the tough challenges that I had to solve to implement them.
This library's primary goal is to make animating code easier. It's not nearly as flexible or robust as manim, but it's already helpful (for me) in its current form.
Most animations in the video, including section screens and the thumbnail, are drawn using it. The only things that didn't use it are some old video footage, screen captures, some basic text effects and the animated arrows (those are stock assets).
