api VS listudy

If you want a specific subset of games, you can use the API (there's also a button on individual profiles to download all of their games): https://lichess.org/api

API's are used to talk with web servers like Lichess: https://lichess.org/api

Other than that, the code is probably ready for GitHub. If you felt like extending it, you can use the lichess API to automate finding puzzles rather than having them in a file that you just read from.

Here is documentation on the Lichess Bot API: https://lichess.org/api

Considering you have some "data science" experience with Python, you might be interested in doing some analysis based on data you can get from the Lichess API or databases.

The Lichess API is documented at https://lichess.org/api

I coded this in a very simple way, just an HTML page with an inline script tag with some JS for updating the UI and such. But I think using Vue.js or another framework would be great for a Lichess-based project. These three pages are pretty useful: https://lichess.org/developers (for embedding a board like I did) https://lichess.org/api (API for getting data) https://database.lichess.org/ (database, for when nothing else works :))

It comes with experience. There is a website called listudy.org that has a section called “Blind Tactics” that might help with visualization.

Listudy: Memorise openings with spaced repetition. Chess Endgame Training Chessercise: Practice chess with YouTube. Chess Madra: Build and practise an opening repertoire. Aimchess: Learn your strengths and weaknesses.

If you are trying to practice a certain opening, I would highly recommend listudy.org just to build that spaced repetition in your head.

I find https://listudy.org very useful for drilling lines. I don't see it mentioned often, but it allows you to import any lichess study (selfmade or other) into it and it'll pick a random line that's up to you to correctly play out until the end. Works very well if you do it enough

I use private Lichess Studies to store/build my repertoire. Start "choosing" your preferred responses to various opening moves and store them there. Start 1 move deep at a time and branch out slowly. At low level of play it's actually better to go just a few moves deep and have some canned responses to common bad moves from your opponents. You can import your lichess study into listudy.org which turns your saved opening prep into spaced repetition exercises to practice.

Second, you can check out https://listudy.org which can do this with lichess studies.
