So recently I've stumbled upon a video, where a guy creates an animation by programming it with maanim.

And after that I also found a way to create music with programming too.

So I'm wondering.. What else can you actually create using programming? Besides the obvious software, VR, AR and all that

If you want to create the most badass documents possible LaTeX is a sheer endless rabbit hole. Various Text formatting, page/document layouts, tables and even graphs can be created using LaTeX. It can be quite hard when getting started with it, but it do be kind of worth it when you got the coolest looking document ever.
