Framed Visuals: collaborative generative art.
frameV is a collaborative platform to display artworks that are rendered in the browser. It is open source and anybody can submit their work. The works are randomly selected from a pre-approved list and refreshes currently every 60 seconds.
The web is open, accessible, and runs everywhere. You want to run this on your old phone as a cool art display in your house? No problem.
Submit a PR following the steps below. Maintainers will run your work, make sure it isn't malicious and you'll most likely get your work shown. If there is a problem, we'll let you know via your PR.
