Where should I put the code for the Frenet frames? In the root file **primitives.jl**?

Hello. I'm back 👍 [Here](https://gist.github.com/stla/e81c6710b1a02683bfeb3ac8f43089b5) is some stuff to make a mesh of a closed tubular path. For example a knot: ![knot1](https://github.com/JuliaGeometry/Meshes.jl/assets/4466543/c48fe444-355e-4335-9281-dcde68739cf9) One can choose the number of sides. Here...

Hey. I'm not familiar with Makie. I have no idea how it deals with the normals.

I wanted to show you a twisted tube (two twists) with four sides and without normals, done in R with the same method: ![TwistedClosedPath](https://github.com/JuliaGeometry/Meshes.jl/assets/4466543/0ba4f0f7-0389-47b5-b0de-9895a337d068) This really works well. As you...

Maybe PyVista (based on VTK) meshes are not objects, I don't know. With rgl I often make a loop to do an animation and I save the mesh as PNG...

> If you want to save a PNG, the mesh has to be rendered. Does that mean there's another format allowing not to render the mesh? As long as I...

Ok. Sometimes I use these functions interactively on a small mesh. I can do as you say or use `print`.

Ah that's you lol. OK. Here is a Hopf Torus filmed by a camera following a spherical curve at constant speed. I implemented this in R but this is slow....

Evaluating the spline, with the root finder and the integral.

I'm using Kochanek-Bartels because it has some parameters. I made a JavaScript application these days: [HopfApplication](https://github.com/stla/HopfApplication) which uses this algorithm (that I reimplemented in JS).
