# cth9191/animate > A Claude Code skill for procedural animation: short canvas videos are drawn in code, rendered frame by frame to MP4 via a headless browser and ffmpeg. Seven built-in styles or a new look matched from your references. - Magnitude: 5.2 out of 10 — Early signal - Stars: 68 total · +7 stars measured 2026-10-07, 03:48–05:10 UTC, ≈ 53 by evening - Star trust: star growth looks organic - Category: Generative media · Language: JavaScript · License: MIT · Created: 2026-10-04 · Last push: 2026-10-05 - GitHub: https://github.com/cth9191/animate · Page: https://gitnova.dev/en/r/cth9191/animate ## Useful for - Build a short explainer in the riso or sketchbook style from a single piece.json - Create a video in your own style by measuring palette and rhythm from reference footage - Cut a piece to your own track with beat-mapped edits and the payoff on the drop ## Why it’s here - Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-07 (UTC), 03:48–05:10: 61 → 68 stars (+7). This is the change over that interval. - Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +53 stars, using observed gains and the previous day. - The repository is 3 days old and already has 68 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet. - Top new repositories this week: #173. - About 25 forks a day — people are taking the code. - Recent forks include notable developers: @jaggedsoft (469 followers). ## Star trust Star growth looks organic. Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer. ## Numbers - Forks: 9 - Issues and pull requests: 0 - Watchers: 0 - Average over the last week: 30 per day - Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks) - Stars in the last hour (measured): 4 ## Stars per day, last 11 days (oldest → newest, today is partial) 2026-09-27 … 2026-10-07: 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 68, 7 ## Spotted in now - Top new repositories this week: #173 ## Similar by description 1. **alexgreensh/anidoodle** — 1.6 · Cooling · Generative media · TypeScript · +4 stars measured 2026-10-07, 00:25–05:15 UTC, ≈ 19 by evening A tool for generating deterministic hand-drawn art and animation as code: nine styles, export to PNG, GIF, MP4, WebM and HTML.

Full card: https://gitnova.dev/en/r/feitangyuan/onetake.md --- Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score. Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast. Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
