GitHub Sponsors Profile

Hi there!
I am a PhD student working on multi-agent systems, and regular contributor to lichess.org.
In chess programming, I enjoy the variety. There's everything from low-level bit fiddling, highly specialized databases, parsers and algorithms, to web servers and snappy user interfaces (and a community happy to use all of these).
With your sponsorship I'll be able to

spend more time contributing to and maintaining free/libre open source software ā¤ļø
pay infrastructure for my software projects šŸ”§
expand amateur research into the limits of magic bitboards in chess engines šŸ”¬

For projects tailored specifically for lichess.org (fishnet, lila-*), consider donating directly to lichess.org.
