Available Apps
This site can do a whole lot more than showing the tiled grey background you get when you first view this site. At the top of this page there's a menu, if you select the "New Background" menu item, then "HD Video", you can get HD video backgrounds (powered by YouTube.com).
Landscape and portrait photos, WebGL (interactive 3D) and canvas (interactive 2D) backgrounds are also possible.
You can completely adjust the user-interface to your liking, if you log in as Guest and click on Site & Page Settings.
In menu at the top of the page, you can find "Dialog Configurations", which allows you to quickly select what dialogs (aka windows) you view on this site.
Downloads
See https://github.com/nicerapp/nicerapp/src/master/ for my latest publicly released source-codes (change-log).
You can download a zip file from bitbucket.org containing all the latest stable sourcecodes for this website.
Current difficulty level of using these sourcecodes is : fairly easy, see README-001-setup.txt and README-002-couchdb.txt.

Summary : it's the same conditions as an MIT license, but with a fee of 10% of profits made with nicerapp getting paid to me.
Companies with very large revenues will probably want to negotiate a lower percentage of course, and i welcome such negotations. See [1] in the LICENSE.txt file.
FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THESE CONTRACT OBLIGATIONS, WILL RESULT IN A FINE OF :
Paying me 20% (twenty percent) of earned profits over the entire span of your
commercial use of my product.
Owner, CEO, CTO and CFO : Rene AJM Veerman.
Email : rene.veerman.netherlands@gmail.com.
nicerapp is designed to stay close to the evolving HTML5 web computer languages standards, with full HTML5- and related web-standards compatibility, and works on all desktop browsers, pads and smartphones.
If a device does not work correctly with nicer.app, please let me know via email.

At gitlab.com, you can find the change-log for nicerapp.
And here's the to-do list for nicerapp
(changed
2020-08-16(Sun) 09:12 CEST) :
-
- backup & restore procedures for couchdb and .../nicerapp/siteData content, including easy to operate scripts
- https://docs.couchdb.org/en/stable/maintenance/backups.html
DONE - see .../backup*.sh
- split /nicerapp/siteMedia/backgrounds (12GB) into two : one small one provided in the git distribution for nicerapp, and one used only by me, on nicer.app
- create torrent distribution for ALL of what is now in the backgrounds collection for nicer.app, to be updated by me once per year (December 10th)
- add site-wide settings option to Site & Page Settings
all of these things have to be completed before i can move on to extra features like forums, social media, webshops (for which i think i'll try to use ebay.com and amazon.com), etc.
- install a payment engine (adyen probably), link it to a geo-location engine (geoIP)
- uploading of MP3 files for music artists to publish music on their account
- upgrade the self-healer code
- upgrade jsEngineeringMath and canvasLogo
- start work on a real time strategy game with role playing features (politician, media editor, media anchor person, intel operative, military commander)
