Manim Tutorial 01: Everything You Need to Know About the Basics | Manim Explained

[@pickyyeeter]

I've wanted to use Manim for a few years and have even stumbled through a few animations in that time, but I never felt like I truly understood it because I haven't seen anybody break it down to a fundamental level. Judging by this video, it seems that's exactly what this series aims to do. Thank you so much!

[@Varniex]

Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm really glad that you liked the approach. If you have any specific topics or questions you'd like me to cover in future videos, please let me know.

Glad you enjoyed them!

Great! Welcome Aboard!!

[@zhongs.l.3932]

Thank you very much for your tutorial video. This is what I particularly need. May I ask which version you will use for your series of tutorials? Is it manimGL or manimCE?

[@Varniex]

I am glad that you liked the concept and I am using ManimGL version.

[@hacktivist]

Thanks for this. BTW, which Manim are you using? CE?

[@Varniex]

Thanks for watching!! It is ManimGL Version.

[@hacktivist]

@@Varniex I am starting my Manim Journey and only working on 2nd video. But I am using ManimCE with Cario renderer. Will check out the differences.

[@Varniex]

That's great!

Thank you!!

Nicely done :) Would like to follow you on linkeding!

Thank you

great video bro. Just a doubt. at 6:35 the methods set_points_as_corners() and add_points_as_corners() are different things? or that's a mistake?

[@Varniex]

I'm glad you liked the video. Actually, both are different methods. At 5:36, I discussed how adding another point will make a closed square so, I used "add" method (line 16) to add one more point (1,1,0) to the array of points in the VMobject (here, 'sq'), which was given to 'sq' with "set" method (lines 4 to 9).

@@Varniex okay thanks 👍 great content. Keep it up brother

[@Varniex]

Thanks for the appreciation. It means a lot!

Keep going. I'm gonna subscribe.

That's Great.

Should we want to learn python only for this , actually i m studying java , so can we able to make these animations by java 😊

[@Varniex]

I'm afraid you can't use Java. Manim is entirely based on Python. Although, Python is easier to learn. It's just a difference of syntax between these two languages.

[@wisamahmed251]

Well done.

[@toanhocmuonnoi]

I'm curious to know how to place a pointed Underline at its two ends?

[@Varniex]

The pointed part is just the rendering effect. I'm just using 'Underline' class.

[@toanhocmuonnoi]

@@Varniex thank you.

subbed , you rock!

Great! Welcome Aboard!

4:30，May I ask how the typewriter-like display is achieved?

[@Varniex]

I'm using updater func to display each character (setting its opacity = 1) per frame. Each character is a MarkupText so, I can vary its opacity.

[@isaacgaleao]

My square makes a line towards the center, and the smoothed version looks so weird lol I have no idea what's going wrong, I copied exactly the same from the video

[@Varniex]

I guess that's a rendering issue. The recent commit in ManimGL is making that error. However, a previous commit will work perfectly well.

[@isaacgaleao]

@@Varniex ohh thanks for the reply! My computer is kinda old so the python versions and its libs are kinda funky, I'm gonna try to get a better computer and try everything again

[@Varniex]

Great! I can't wait to see your animations. Cheers!
