I'm searching badly for a similar tool (code-based animation renderer) but not focused on math, but rather on general-purpose infographic/charts/motion graphics. The traditional approach for that, of course, is to use After Effects/Davinci Fusion/Blender/Cavalry/etc., but since I've first tried PovRay back in the early 2000s and then tools like Manim, I can't stop thinking about a code/text-based motion graphics tool. It would shine in use with LLMs, of course, and while I see some new "ChatGPT-wrappers for Motion Graphics" pop up now and then, I don't need yet another chat to send me cloud-rendered videos in the Electron app. I want a templated code/language for the graphics and style I'll settle on to use with different data and be able to render it locally (or event automate) as much as I want.

If you're ok with C++ you can try https://github.com/2swap/swaptube

That's cool, thanks for sharing! In my perfect finding I would see some primitives for infographic/charts/etc. This library is great for pendulums :) (currently watching your video on non-chaotic double pendulums and it's awesome!)

Thanks, but it's not my channel! I just stumbled upon it and made a mental note to remember the repo.
