Manim is a code-driven animation engine designed for creating precise mathematical and scientific visualizations. Originally developed by Grant Sanderson (3Blue1Brown), it differs from typical video libraries by generating animations programmatically from scene definitions, rather than editing existing video files. This makes it especially suited for explanatory math, physics, and algorithm visualizations, not general-purpose video processing.
