⭐️ Gȧrt is a pragmatical framework and set of utilities for generating and rendering still images and movies.

uses Skiko (by JetBrains) for Skia binding.
box-2d for physics simulation.
ffmpeg for video encoding.

🤷‍♂️ Honestly, I put the framework together for my own needs, so it’s a bit rough around the edges and the naming isn’t great. It’s not how I normally write code.
