GitHub Sponsors Profile
Hi, I am a software developer as well as chess and chess variant enthusiast, and author of Fairy-Stockfish. My open source development mainly focuses on chess variant software, as well as chess and chess variant data analysis:
Fairy-Stockfish, a strong chess variant engine, which is used e.g. by lichess and pychess.
Libraries and ports based on Fairy-Stockfish for python, JS, and WASM for use in other chess variant projects, e.g., chess variant GUIs and websites, as well as all the other development, testing, and integration project landscape around Fairy-Stockfish.
Chess (variant) data analysis tools enabling more research and understanding of chess variants.
With your support you enable me to
spend more time on improving, extending, and maintaining Fairy-Stockfish.
develop and maintain integrations to support other chess variant projects.
do data analysis on chess and chess variants and write about it.
