manim

Animation engine for explanatory math videos. More information: https://docs.manim.community/en/stable/tutorials/quickstart.html.

• Render a scene from a Python script using the default settings:

manim {{path/to/file.py}} {{SceneName}}

• Render with live preview (auto-opens the video file after rendering):

manim {{[-pql|--preview --quality low]}} {{path/to/file.py}} {{SceneName}}

• Render at high quality (1080p 60fps):

manim {{[-pqh|--preview --quality high]}} {{path/to/file.py}} {{SceneName}}

• Specify a custom output file name:

manim {{[-o|--output_file]}} {{output_file_name}} {{path/to/file.py}} {{SceneName}}

• Render using a specific resolution and frame rate:

manim {{[-r|--resolution]}} {{1920,1080}} {{[-f|--fps]}} {{60}} {{path/to/file.py}} {{SceneName}}

• List available scenes in a file without rendering:

manim --list_scenes {{path/to/file.py}}

• Display help:

manim --help
