GSoC 2023: Join the Processing Foundation as a Summer of Code Contributor!

Hi @Jithin!

Would you be able to elaborate on why anime.js was used for animation, rather than using p5.js itself? (For example, I used p5.js to create the animations and simulations that I shared in a previous post.) Is it related to animating the TeX expressions?

Also, if there are any insights that you or @two.ticks could share about your choice of tech stack (TypeScript, Jest, TypeDoc), that’d be very helpful. My inclination is to use the same tech stack as p5.js, in order to reduce friction between the community of contributors that we’d build and the existing p5.js contributor community. If you found compelling reasons to choose a different stack, I’d be interested to hear them! This will help @jesi-rgb and I determine whether or not it makes sense for us to build directly on p5.teach.

Thanks again for all your help!
Greg
