Class structure, Rendering Settings, Shapes, and Basic Animation | Mastering Manim Chapter 1

In this video we learn the structure behind our programs, different rendering settings, and some basic animation with shapes like Circles, Squares, Lines, and Triangles.

TIMESTAMPS:
1:08 - Using old 3B1B video files as a learning tool
2:12 - Hello World
2:30 - Class Structure
4:56 - Rendering Settings
5:40 - A Better Hello World
7:03 - How to Save your animation as a single image
8:37 - Circles, Squares, Lines, and Triangles (really any polygon)
11:20 - Animating Drawing the Shapes

*Note for Improvement* in this video I go pretty slow and explain everything, but in future videos, I'll be going faster and be more concise now that you know the basic commands. *
*I also want to display the animations we create throughout the video at the very beginning so you wouldn't have to scroll to the end of the video*

Rendering Settings:
Use the flat -l for a faster rendering at a lower quality.
Use -s to skip to the end and just save the final frame
Use the -p to have the animation (or image, if -s was used) pop up once done.
Use -n (number)to skip ahead to the n'th animation of a scene.
Use -r (number) to specify a resolution (for example, -r 1080 for a 1920x1080 video)

Shapes:
circle = Circle()
square = Square()

7:44 - pl does mean Preview at Low Quality, not preview large.

Hi "not so Lazy AZ",
Please continue to make MANIM tutorials you're the first one to explain it in such raw details. Pay no attention to lower views, you are awesome.

Great video! Does exist a manual to learn Manim??

[MasterShay]

I got a question. When I tried to implement the code, the Command Line said that manimlib.imports isn't a module. Can you help me with this?

[TigasCraft]

It gives me these problems:
Unable to import 'manimlib.imports'
Undefined variable 'scene'
Undefined variable 'Text Mobject'

I've already installed everything, and I ve tested everything
