liwords VS lichobile

Check out https://woogles.io (disclaimer I am a cofounder). AGPLV3 platform with world class bots, puzzles, a free analyzer, clubs/tournaments, and more to come. You can see the source code at https://github.com/woogles-io/liwords. We recently hit 5M games played and have hosted a few major tournaments.

A small team of us work on a project https://github.com/domino14/liwords - this is an online crossword-board-game playing website. We have around 6000 MAU, are fully free and open-source, and need a lot of coding help!

We built woogles.io (a crossword board game playing site with almost 10K MAU) in Go. See https://github.com/domino14/liwords

https://github.com/domino14/liwords - warning it’s not that well-developed but it’s ok

A small team and I made https://woogles.io - we were inspired by lichess to make a site to play crossword board games during the pandemic (like Scrabble, Words with Friends, etc).

We did raise money on Kickstarter - 25K but are purely donations-driven and open source (AGPL3) Most months we just get enough to cover the cost of running the servers. We have around 6000 monthly active users, have hosted several big worldwide championships, have puzzles, and just earlier today released a board editor / broadcast mode for annotating real life games in real time. We also have a top notch bot AI and WASM-based analyzer.

Our stack is Go, Typescript + React, with NATS/PGSQL on the backend.

woogles.io

The people behind those websites and apps have no clue this software exists. The exception is woogles.io because it is associated with the Macondo AI. /u/14domino is the brain behind both of those things

https://woogles.io raised $25K on Kickstarter and built a more beautiful site. Come join us (we’re still taking donations :)

- Playing online: there is woogles.io which I personally would recommend; it's made by players for players and is free to use. Among the features are: play against humans, play against strong bots, tournaments, feedback on your moves after the game, availability of different languages and game variants. Other options are: playscrab.com (also made by players for players); isc.ro (the Internet Scrabble Club); the app Scrabble Go and, if you don't mind playing with slightly altered game rules, Wordfeud, which comes along with a large online league (not technically affiliated with the app itself).

A few months ago, news broke that Lichess now has a full-time developer for the mobile app. How can I track the development status of the Lichess Mobile App? What features are planned, is there a roadmap? I can't see anything about it on the github page.

I guess that you can keep an eye on the official page: https://lichess.org/mobile

At least on when using the app [this Lichess bug](https://github.com/lichess-org/lichobile/issues/1027) prevents playing any blitz games without taking a bigger rating hit.

lichess (version 7.16.1): free online chess

I have been using the official Android client ( https://github.com/lichess-org/lichobile ), and the only feature I use is anonymous "Quick pairing" games. That is, I do not log into Lichess. The official client does not require login.

It works on the website (desktop and mobile). It will be available in the app soon.

I submitted a PR (for the non-developers: programming code change suggestion) that made the game events emit haptic feedback.

Lichess is actually open source, the mobile app is written in a mixture of typescript, swift and kotlin using ionic capacitor to access the native sdk. I don’t really know the differences between ionic and react native but I don’t see why it shouldn’t be possible to write it using the latter. Mind you that the mobile front end it’s just one of the many blocks that constitute the lichess app as a whole
