White to play and win material
I found this move in a game I played yesterday. I'm still improving my chess, so I'm glad that I found this move in a 10 minutes game, even though I realized afterwards that I could have played this the previous move already.

Spaced Repetition Trainer for macOS/iOS
Hey, I just made an account to share something I am currently working on. At the moment I am learning a new repertoire and while I like some of the possible solutions to better memorize the repertoire (Chessable, Chesstempo, Lichess, etc.) I wanted to create my own thing to better suit my specific needs and to make it visually more appealing (at least to me, I guess design decisions are quite subjective). I am an iOS developer and therefore I used my knowledge in that area to build a repertoire trainer for macOS and iOS. Currently the application has the following features: ... read full post

A 1200 game analyzed by a 1200 player.
Heya, chess lemmings. I've been wanting to analyze this game for a while and finally got around toit the other day, so now I'm hoping to get the writedown finished as well. I analyze this purely for my own learning, and I put it out here in hopes that someone might come with comments or critiques of either the gameplay or the analysis. Also this community needs posts and I'd love to add some here, especially ones that are not posts urging people to look at a smothered mate puzzle. ... read full post

I created a new variant called Allegiance Chess where the pieces can switch sides
https://allegiance-chess.decentm.com/I've been working on this idea for two months and it's playable now. In short, pieces can switch sides if they're challenged twice, but then at that point they can return in just one move. I thought it'd be a cool hobby project to do (it was) but I'm mediocre at chess and I'd like to know what high level players think of the mechanics. ... read full post
