Walleye VS cozy-chess

Hey, author of Walleye here. Also learned rust by writing my own chess engine :). Played a game and it looks neat, really cool you deployed it on your own server with its own frontend.

I have been wanting to learn rust for a while and recently decided to just sit down and make something. For some reason I decided a chess engine would be a good first project despite having no experience with either rust or chess engines... Anyway here it is

If you'd like to reference something, my movegen crate cozy-chess does this. I also have a standalone reference implementation here as part of my magic bitboard article.

https://github.com/ShailChoksi/lichess-bot is a straight forward way to use any UCI engine with lichess. There are also a few libraries for move generation mine: https://github.com/Disservin/chess-library , libchess: https://github.com/kz04px/libchess , surge: https://github.com/nkarve/surge . These are C++ ones, for rust theres https://github.com/analog-hors/cozy-chess . In python you could use python-chess but its incredibly slow for engine stuff writing your own will probably be faster if you know what you are doing.

A while back, I got into computer chess. I used Jordan Bray's neat chess crate for move generation, and was pretty satisfied until I took a look at the code. It's pretty good and all, but... So. Much. unsafe. Out of a mix of frustration and curiosity, I made it my next project to create my own chess move generation library. So... here it is, I guess: https://github.com/analog-hors/cozy-chess/ It's my first crate, so feedback would be appreciated! It's currently being used in my (weak) chess engine Tantabus.
