ManimVTK – Interactive scientific visualization from Manim animations

Summary: ManimVTK extends Manim by adding VTK export, enabling interactive exploration of mathematical and scientific 3D scenes beyond static videos. It allows users to rotate, inspect, and control parameters of geometry generated in Manim, integrating with Mathify for automatic interactive visualizations.

What it does

ManimVTK exports Manim scenes as interactive VTK models, supporting geometry manipulation and parameter controls, with future support for pausable animations.

Who it's for

It targets educators, researchers, and developers needing interactive mathematical or scientific 3D visualizations beyond traditional video outputs.

Why it matters

It solves the limitation of Manim’s static video output by enabling dynamic, explorable representations of complex geometry and animations.
