manimR: A Grammar of Mathematical Animation for R

Create mathematical animations using a tidyverse-friendly grammar of motion. manimR makes it as easy to create stunning mathematical visualizations as it is to create plots with ggplot2.

Getting Started

The core workflow in manimR follows a simple pattern:

1. Create a scene with scene()

2. Add objects with add_text(), add_latex(), igraph::add_shape(), etc.

3. Animate objects with write_in(), fade_in(), transform_to(), etc.

4. Render with rmarkdown::render() or preview with preview()

Example

library(manimR)

scene("my_first_animation") %>%
  add_latex("E = mc^2") %>%
  write_in(duration = 2) %>%
  pause(1) %>%
  highlight_term("c^2", color = "yellow") %>%
  render()

Package Options

manimR uses the following options:

• manimR.render_quality - Default render quality ("low", "medium", "high", "4K")

• manimR.fps - Default frames per second (default: 30)

• manimR.cache - Enable caching (default: TRUE

• manimR.verbose - Show progress messages (default: TRUE)
