Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

This Week In Python
manim – A community-maintained Python framework for creating mathematical animations
- I'm new to try manim and it met some questions TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'line_join'
-
Old blog of Matt Henderson, beautiful math animations
I recently wanted to make something similar and I completely fell in love with https://www.manim.community/ created by 3B1B.

Text-to-CAD: Risks and Opportunities
https://github.com/gumyr/build123d :
> Build123d is a python-based, parametric, boundary representation (BREP) modeling framework for 2D and 3D CAD. It's built on the Open Cascade geometric kernel and allows for the creation of complex models using a simple and intuitive python syntax. Build123d can be used to create models for 3D printing, CNC machining, laser cutting, and other manufacturing processes. Models can be exported to a wide variety of popular CAD tools such as FreeCAD and SolidWorks.
> Build123d could be considered as an evolution of CadQuery where the somewhat restrictive Fluent API (method chaining) is replaced with stateful context managers* - e.g. with blocks - thus enabling the full python toolbox: for loops, references to objects, object sorting and filtering, etc.*

NURBS for COMPAS: https://github.com/gramaziokohler/compas_nurbs :
> This package is inspired by the NURBS-Python package, however uses a NumPy-based backend for better performance.
> Curve, and Surface are non-uniform non-rational B-Spline geometries (NUBS), RationalCurve, and RationalSurface are non-uniform rational B-Spline Geometries (NURBS). They all built upon the class BSpline. Coordinates have to be in 3D space (x, y, z)

Ask HN: What would you show an interviewer if they asked you for code samples?
A template language that I wrote for generating HTML. Meant to be included as a C++ library. https://github.com/Ghoti-io/Tang
Plenty of other C++ code of mine is on Github (such as a bunch of utility stuff, a thread pool, and a HTTP server that I'm writing from scratch), even though I would only call myself an intermediate C++ programmer. I just happen to like the language.
Or, if I had to throw other stuff into the mix, a fairly recent patch to Manim (Python) that got accepted (https://github.com/ManimCommunity/manim/pull/3155).
If I were really pressed, I would dig up a lot of my Drupal (PHP) stuff that I did years ago.

What are you rewriting in rust?
I would love to have this https://github.com/manimCommunity/manim written in Rust. There have been previous attempts (bevy_manim and another one using nannou) but all of them are outdated

3Blue1Brown: Visualizing Attention, a Transformer's Heart
Working in a closely related space and this instantly became part of my team's onboarding docs.
Worth noting that a lot of the visualization code is available in Github.

3Blue1Brown Calculus Blog Series
For anyone interested in the code used in his animations, the repo is here: https://github.com/3b1b/videos
It's pretty impressive. A lot of work goes into these videos.
My other favourite YouTube math guy is eigenchris. His tensor calculus series is legendary: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJHszsWbB6hpk5h8lSfBk...
In complete contrast to 3b1b, eigenchris creates his videos entirely in PowerPoint, which makes me laugh even as I type this.

How to run the 3b1b video code successfully?
I found the code here on github.

- Is the Python code for the animations in the videos ever posted anywhere?

Implementations of Grant's 2-D Equation Solver
You can check out the video's source code; it's written in Python (using Grant's animation package manim). It's mainly used to generate the animations but implements the algorithm under the hood.

How do I get manim_imports_ext?
I have been trying to recreate the pi collisions video and came across this module in 3b1b's GitHub here, was wondering how do I install it ?
- Does anyone know how to recreate this animation in manim?

Daily Wordle #264 - Thursday, 10 Mar. 2022
If you want to find out the performance of words, Grant Sanderson of 3Blue1Brown recently published a video exploring minimax algorithms for Wordle (and an erratum), along with the code used therein, which you can run if you want to see the average performance of various words in various situations.
