Manim
A community-maintained Python framework for creating animations
A community-maintained Python library for creating mathematical animations. Manim is a free and open-source project originally written by Grant Sanderson. It is now maintained by the Manim Community and permissively released under the MIT license. Manim was originally created by Grant Sanderson as a personal project and for use in his YouTube channel, 3Blue1Brown. As his channel gained popularity, many grew to like the style of his animations and wanted to use manim for their own projects. However, as manim was only intended for personal use, it was very difficult for other users to install and use it. Manim, or ManimCE refers to the community-maintained version of the library. This is the version documented on this website; the package name on PyPI is manim. ManimGL is the latest released version of the library developed by Grant “3b1b” Sanderson. It has more experimental features and breaking changes between versions are not documented. -

Animated Drawings
Code to accompany "A Method for Animating Children's Drawings"
AnimatedDrawings is a framework that converts user sketches or line drawings into fully animated 2D motion sequences using learned motion priors. The idea is that you draw a simple static figure (stick figure, silhouette, or contour lines), and the system produces plausible skeletal motion (walking, jumping, dancing) that adheres to the drawn shape constraints. The architecture separates shape embedding (to understand user-drawn geometry) from motion embedding / generation (to produce temporally coherent movement). Users can provide rough keyframes or control constraints (pose anchors), and the system fills intermediate frames with fluid animation. The repository includes demonstration apps and notebooks where you can upload or draw shapes and watch animations play. Because the approach is data-driven, it generalizes to new drawings even with varying proportions or stylizations. -

Oil Motion
Create smooth, responsive interactive web animations
Oil Motion is an agent-agnostic skill for creating smooth interactive animations for websites and digital interfaces. Users describe the desired movement, available assets, and the interaction that should control it while the agent manages the production workflow. The system defines key states, generates continuous motion between them, reviews frames, removes artifacts, and prepares optimized assets. Animation progress can then be mapped to scrolling, mouse movement, dragging, touch input, device orientation, clicks, or component states. Reverse movement naturally follows the same frame sequence when the user reverses an interaction. The workflow also considers motion continuity, visual clarity, loading size, and mobile performance. It is suitable for product reveals, character interactions, demonstrations, data transitions, and narrative page sequences. -

Flint
Actionscript 3 Particle Engine for Flash and Flex
Flint is an ActionScript 3 particle engine designed for creating rich particle effects in Flash and Flex applications, providing tools for animations like fire, smoke, and explosions. This first tutorial will introduce the basics of Flint through a project to create a snow effect. Our effect will be snow flakes drifting down the screen. Each snow flake will be a particle in our particle system. If you want to see the final effect, scroll to the bottom of the page. This tutorial works with version 4.0.0 of the Flint library. This example creates a 2D particle effect. For 3D particle effects the principles are the same but you use a 3D emitter and 3D behaviours. First create a new Flash file (Actionscript 3). Set the stage size to 500 pixels wide and 400 pixels high, set the frame rate to 30 fps and set the background color to black. -

srt-whiteboard-animation
Make SRT into a streaming handwriting whiteboard hand-drawn animation
srt-whiteboard-animation is an AI skill for turning SRT subtitle files into hand-drawn whiteboard videos that follow the narrative order of the captions. It parses subtitles and recommends scene divisions, typically targeting segments of about 25 to 35 seconds. Each scene is planned around one core idea before artwork and annotations are prepared. Semantic drawing order connects visual elements to specific subtitle events rather than relying only on coordinates. A streaming renderer first reveals ink strokes and then progressively adds color. Users can adjust regions, timing, sequence, and subtitle associations in a browser preview before rendering scenes and merging them into a final MP4. -

Effeckt.css
A Performant Transitions and Animations Library
Effeckt.css is a showcase and toolkit of high-performance UI transitions and animations for the web. It catalogs common interaction patterns—button states, list reveals, modals, off-canvas menus, and page transitions—implemented with CSS transforms and opacity for smooth, GPU-friendly motion. The project focuses on practical details such as using compositing-friendly properties, keeping DOM structures lean, and providing hooks so JavaScript can toggle classes without micromanaging animation state. Each effect is isolated, documented, and demoed, allowing designers to copy just what they need rather than dragging in a monolithic framework. By standardizing names and behaviors, it helps teams keep motion design consistent across a product while remaining easy to theme. The library doubled as a learning resource during the rise of CSS animations, showing how to achieve polished interactions without heavy JavaScript. -

SCAIL
Towards Studio-Grade Character Animation via In-Context Learning of 3D
SCAIL is a project developed by the ZAI Organization, focusing on AI-driven research initiatives. While specific documentation about SCAIL’s exact goals and implementation is limited from the repository context alone, the project appears to be part of a collection of machine learning and AI research tools that facilitate scalable model development, evaluation, or application workflows. Given its listing alongside other ZAI projects like speech recognition and text-to-speech systems, SCAIL likely emphasizes scalable, composable AI learning frameworks that support researchers and practitioners in experimenting with learning algorithms, datasets, and model components. The repository structure suggests a focus on flexibility and extensibility, with potential integration into other ZAI tooling for training or analysis. -

frame.js
JavaScript Sequence Editor
frame.js is a tiny utility for orchestrating frame-based animations with requestAnimationFrame while keeping code clean and predictable. It abstracts the boilerplate of setting up a render loop, tracking elapsed time, and updating callbacks at the right cadence. By providing a simple lifecycle—start, stop, tick—it encourages separation between state updates and rendering, which is essential for smooth visuals. The library aims to be unobtrusive: you can drop it into demos or prototypes without adopting a large framework. Because it centralizes timing, it becomes easier to coordinate multiple animated elements or throttle work on low-power devices. For creative coding, micro-games, and UI flourishes, it offers just enough structure to keep animation code tidy. -
