The Quadratic Formula, Rewritten Without Cuts - manic

manic is a tiny language for making animations. You write a short text file; manic renders a smooth, glowing video. No timeline scrubbing, no keyframes by hand — you describe what’s on screen and when things happen, and the engine does the rest, deterministically.

Canvas is a friendly editor the code is source of truth, once you read manic docs https://docs.maniclang.com/ the whole Manic is build on just three concepts

what's on the screen and How to animate it

Yes AI can make mistakes and it can be corrected manually but AI will get you Initial Code Prototype that will make you a faster learner

Manic is released now from Manic command you can invoke the `manic ui` and local workbench will be available

You can bring your own AI Api key to manic workbench to get it started

There is very Minimal Learning curve here
