  • tinyhttp

  • You could either build a static site with any JS framework like NextJS and host the HTML with any Rust backend like Axum or Rocket. I am the author of a tinyhttp, a lightweight HTTP server which I believe would meet your needs.

  • wasm-bindgen

    Facilitating high-level interactions between Wasm modules and JavaScript

  • Go with your WebAssembly module idea. Since it sounds like your chess engine does not draw a UI, it shouldn't be too difficult. wasm-bindgen will be your best friend.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
