3Blue1Brown is an educational YouTube channel created by Grant Sanderson. The channel focuses on animated mathematics lessons, with videos on topics such as linear algebra, calculus, and neural networks.

Background

Grant Sanderson graduated from Stanford University and is a former software engineer.[3] He worked for Khan Academy from 2015-2016, making videos about multivariable calculus.[4][5] In March 2015, Grant created 3Blue1Brown to upload his own math videos.[3]

Videos

Grant Sanderson animates with a self-made python library, with the exception of 3D animations, for which he uses Grapher.[3]

Since starting in March 2015, the channel has uploaded over 70 videos, with mini-series on linear algebra, calculus, and neural networks. The channel has collaborated with MinutePhysics to make videos on quantum physics and orbital motion.[6][7] Two of the channel's videos has been featured on Popular Mechanics.[8][9]
