This seems like one of the best uses of computers for educational media, one of the ways digital instruction can really shine through compared to physical text which can often require supplemental videos or help from a teacher to elucidate a concept.
Feels very reminiscent to me of 3B1B videos [1] on topics that use visuals to elucidate math topics more clearly as well.

In case anyone is interested in a written version of some of the essential points 3Blue1Brown makes, I recently released my own review notes which try to provide a brief overview of some of the main linear algebra topics as well as applications: https://github.com/photonlines/Intuitive-Overview-of-Linear-...
3Blue1Brown's Essence of linear algebra series is the go to place for learning this material. I've included the link to the series below so people don't get lost in all his other wonderful videos along the way.

No offense to 3b1b, the production quality is impressive and the content is effectively insightful.
However, it is ultimately a very limited linear format covering the topic only lightly.
I see you used a throwaway because there are so many fans. I might not be as harsh but while I enjoyed the pretty animations they didn't actually help me learn linear algebra. They're still full of jargon written for people who already know the topic.
