    Project mention: Show HN: Termichess – Play chess right on your terminal | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-10-07

    Hey everyone,

    I have been trying to build a terminal based app for sometime now and this is an attempt at trying to build a chess app that one can play right inside terminal.

    I was inspired by `chess-tui`[1] which is a rust based project and was looking to build something similar using python. Luckily I stumbled upon textual[2] recently and it made my task of building this far more easier than I thought.
