A Julia package for managing animations based on frame data.

This project started as an exploration into Julia syntax and language design. In particular the multiple dispatch paradigm is extensively used to create methods which operate on different types- such as the Animation and AnimationCollection types introduced by this package. Additionally, this package uses interfaces to integrate with the Julia syntax by defining methods such as setindex! and getindex. Animation and AnimationCollection are also generic structs which allow integration for any type of data.

• Animation struct storing a vector of Frame structs which can contain any type of data via generics.

• setindex!, getindex(), and length() defined for Animation and AnimationCollection structs.

• Randomization and caching for frames which have multiple items of data. (Frames.data can be Vector{T} or T via Union{}'s.)

• AnimationCollection struct which stores multiple Animation structs and allows for easy switching between them. The Animation's can be indexed via a U generic type.

A Playground Project showcasing the usage of this package will be available soon.

This package is not published to the Julia General Registry. You must install this package via the git url and set the correct subdir:
