You may recall that a few months ago, I posted about yet another project of mine where I decided to…

By comparison, FrankenManim is one single memory-safe Rust binary that's just 12.4mb and that does it ALL (other than video encoding), that's cross-platform, that can even be compiled into wasm and run in a browser (try doing THAT with legacy manim!). And it's fast: the whole 30,431-frame 4K60 video renders in 141 seconds on my Threadripper with two 4090s GPUs.

This is the way of the future. And the entire FrankenManim project is built out of my other projects: asupersync as the foundation, FrankenMarkdown, FrankenNumpy, FrankenPandas, FrankenSciPy, FrankenNetworkX, FrankenTorch, the list goes on and on. Everything is cumulative and builds on itself. 

I didn't even have FrankenTTS when I created the plan for FrankenManim, but now that I do, I think I'll bundle that in (it's also distributed as a library) to make it easier to add narration to your explainer videos.

I'll also make a skill soon for my skills site that automates the entire process end to end of making an explainer video like this. You can either supply the script yourself or just say what you want covered and any other details and the agent can do the rest itself, fully autonomously.

Perhaps it's time that people start paying attention to my approach and master plan here instead of dismissing it all as
