[Docs] Quickstart - Transform vs ReplacementTransform #3139

@DegrangeM

Description

@DegrangeM

In the quickstart tutorial https://docs.manim.community/en/stable/tutorials/quickstart.html

The transform method is introduced : https://docs.manim.community/en/stable/tutorials/quickstart.html#transforming-a-square-into-a-circle

A little after, in Using .animate syntax to animate methods, the ReplacementTransform method is used.

It is confusing for new learner because they don't know why this new function is used instead of the other.

The docs should either :

  • Only use the transform method (if possible)
  • Only use the ReplacementTransform method (if possible)
  • Keep using transform and ReplacementTransform but explain the new method
