  • lichobile

    lichess.org mobile application

    • Project mention: State of development of the mobile app | /r/lichess | 2023-06-07

    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.

  • InfluxDB

  • chessground

    Mobile/Web chess UI for lichess.org

    • Project mention: How to read and understand seemingly large typescript project ? | /r/typescript | 2023-09-23

    I want to write a chess board program. I am looking into an open source project called chessground .

  • mobile

    Lichess mobile app v2 (by lichess-org)

    • Project mention: Lichess: 5 BILLION games and counting! Our public game database just crossed 5 billion standard rated games! Did you know you can download every rated game played... | /r/chess | 2023-12-06

    The new app is in development and I believe there's some alpha testing (can sign up via lichess discord). https://github.com/lichess-org/mobile

  • fishnet

    Distributed Stockfish analysis for lichess.org (by lichess-org)

    • Project mention: Chess-GPT's Internal World Model | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-01-06

    > The problem is that a stockfish based bot knows some very strong moves, but deliberately plays bad moves so it’s about the right skill level.

    What are you basing this on? To me it seems like difficulty is set by limiting search depth/time: https://github.com/lichess-org/fishnet/blob/master/src/api.r...

  • lichess-bot

    A bridge between Lichess API and chess engines

  • pychess

    PyChess - a chess client for Linux/Windows

    • Project mention: Rare "bipartisan" win: Lichess tweets about a Chess.com stream and Chess.com acknowledges | /r/chess | 2023-04-27

    Pychess seems to be maintained by a completely separate entity. The name is also incredibly badly chosen, because PyChess is a well-known, unrelated interface GUI written in Python + GTK.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • scalachess

    Chess API written in scala. Immutable and free of side effects.

  • irwin

    irwin - the protector of lichess from all chess players villainous

    • Project mention: How common is false banning in chess? | /r/chess | 2023-07-11

    For Lichess, you can get some sort of idea from reading the code. If I remember correctly, there's some threshold for the site suspecting you of cheating based on a variety of simple metrics (accuracy, blurring, etc) and then it gets sent to machine learning tools to analyze (here is one of them, and here's another).

  • api

    Lichess API documentation and examples (by lichess-org)

    • Project mention: Yes you should play until you lose and stop for the day. Plot gives the expected rating gain (with bounds) for my last 2k games. There is a clear increase in expectation after waiting a 12 hours from a loss. There is a small (non stat. sig.) decrease waiting after draw or win. | /r/chess | 2023-05-27

    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

  • chess-openings

    An aggregated data set of chess opening names

    • Project mention: Is there a chess library in Python (or any other programming language but Python preferred) that will allow me to identify the opening of a game by passing the PGN of the game as input? | /r/chess | 2023-06-02

    Not a library, but at least a collection of openings in a machine readable format. Also a script to manipulate it in the bin/ folder. https://github.com/lichess-org/chess-openings

  • stockfish.wasm

    WebAssembly port of the strong chess engine Stockfish

  • lishogi

    ☗ lishogi.org: the forever free, adless and open source shogi server forked from lichess.org ☗

    • Project mention: Yakuza Like A Dragon Shogi Challenges Help | /r/yakuzagames | 2023-09-08

    Or just go to lishogi, play against the computer on max difficulty, and copy over the moves to have the Yakuza AI play against the lishogi AI. You can even change the pieces to a set that more closely resembles the one in the game, and also flip the board so you're oriented the same way as in the game. Guaranteed win, the lishogi AI was just stomping every game when I used it in Y0.

  • shakmaty

    A Rust library for chess and chess variant rules and operations

  • cli-chess

    A highly customizable way to play chess in your terminal / command line. Play online (via Lichess.org) and offline against the Fairy-Stockfish engine. All Lichess variants are supported. (by trevorbayless)

  • berserk

    Python client for the lichess API

  • prettierlichess

    It's Lichess, but prettier

    • Project mention: Why would anyone play on Chess.com? It's an ad-ridden, cluster#$%& of an eyesore to look at, especially compared to the clean look of Lichess. I just don't get it. | /r/chess | 2023-06-07

    We have https://prettierlichess.github.io/ though, and both vanilla Lichess and chess.com look horrible compared to it.

  • lila-ws

    Lichess' websocket server

  • lila-openingexplorer

    Opening explorer for lichess.org that can handle all the variants and trillions of unique positions

    • Project mention: Who is using AXUM in production? | /r/rust | 2023-04-21
