use applications as cinnamon background

I know nothing about Cinnamon coding, Linux de structure, C coding or Bash coding, so feel free to suggest better ways to do things

this script sets a window type to application and also moves it behind nemo window, obviously only works on X
uses some code as example from lrewega/xwinwrap
requires xprop, wmctrl, mpv, socat, xwininfo to run without modifying the script
add windesktop.sh as a startup application to have it enabled on startup
if something goes wrong, run 'killall windesktop.sh'
you may want to use https://github.com/valgusk/cinnamon-bg Cinnamon extension if you want expo and ovrview support

I would like to use this code, perhaps improve it, but I can't because you didn't specify your license. If you don't mind, can you add the license explicitly? :)
