Meow...?

node .

What do we currently have?

The engine

• Negamax search algorithm with Alpha-Beta pruning.
• MVV-LVA heuristic.
• Simple evaluation over material and squares.

Others

• A simple and not-that-intuitive console application that takes a FEN value and returns a move.

How strong is it?

After some testing, it out-performs ~1000 elo chess bots on chess.com early game and mid-game, but does not know how to deliver a proper checkmate.
