About Animo
Animo is an AI-powered animation tool built into your code editor. 770+ GitHub stars. Used by developers, teachers, and creators worldwide.
Why I Built This
I make videos for my YouTube audience. Animated explanations, math visualizations, algorithm breakdowns. The problem: making these videos took forever. Hours of work for minutes of content.
I'm a developer. I wanted to automate this. I started with Manim—the library 3Blue1Brown uses—but writing Manim code from scratch was slow. So I built a tool that generates Manim code from plain English descriptions.
That tool became Animo. Now I make animations in minutes instead of hours. Other developers started using it. Teachers found it. Content creators adopted it. The open-source project hit 770+ stars on GitHub.
Animo lives in your code editor—VSCode, Cursor, Windsurf. Describe what you want, get working Manim code, render locally. No cloud uploads. No context switching. Just fast animation creation where you already work.
Why Animo Extension is Different
We focus on what developers want: local control, fast work, and deep editor integration.
Local Rendering
Your animations render on your machine. No cloud uploads. No waiting for servers. You get results fast. Your code stays on your computer.
Built Into Your Editor
Works with VSCode, Cursor, and Windsurf. Access animation tools from your editor's command palette. Keep your tools. Stay in your environment. No context switching.
AI Code Generation
Describe what you want. Our AI understands math, space, and what you are trying to show. It generates clean Manim code. You inspect it. You change it. You own it.
Feedback From AI
Our AI looks at your animations and gives suggestions. Ideas for timing, composition, and clarity. Learn best practices while you work.
