hi guys i'm new here and i'm a 14 year old that has been making animations with python using the manim library like the on i uploaded here , and i realized that you can't make visual effects with manim and i saw that blender had a scripting system that lets you do stuff in blender and i asked ChatGPT if it can do animations like this but with vfx like shaking and lava coming out of the floor or something like so and it said yeah although the code it gave me didn't work and idk if this is worth to learn

Hi, I want to get boolean or float values from grid plane and put them into python numpy like 2D image. What is the simplest way to get these attributes? After processing the image with python, I want to have them back in geometry nodes. How to get values from python into geometry nodes?

I'm just wondering what advantages there might be in working with object geometry in code rather than manually. In books, I've seen hundreds of lines of code needed to build a model from scratch when it seems it could be done faster the old fashioned way - by hand. So why use code?

I understand that it probably is standard growing pains between versions, so learning scripting should probably keep me working in blender 4.5. I was noticing a lot of commands in the bpy.ops line of commands like bpy.ops.mesh.primitive_ico_sphere_add() and bpy.ops.mesh.primitive_plane_add() and even things like editing a material's diffuse_color was returning "cannot modify blend data in this state (drawing/rendering)" All my attempts to be in the correct state have failed on those operations, when running the script in the text editor window. I haven't seen any recent chatter on this case after the version's release. So I was wondering, is there was any way to appease the error with a workflow change?

I don't know about any coding...can I start directly with Python? Or should I have to learn something first?
