+I started [Boxi Math](https://boxi-math.github.io/), free K–12 maths videos in English and Chinese that show why maths works, organised by stage rather than school year. The videos and text are CC BY 4.0, and the tools behind them are open source at [animind-ai](https://github.com/animind-ai). See [education equity](/#equity-heading).
