ffish-test

This is a fun little repository for me to hack on software like Fairy-Stockfish, it's accompanying ffish.js library, and the graphical chessgroundx. I can't guarantee that much of it will be very useful, I'm just hoping it's a fun project :)

You can see it deployed at: https://thearst3rd.github.io/ffish-test/

What is it

ffish-test is my little project which uses ffish.js to generate legal moves for chess and chess variants, and chessgroundx to graphically display them and let the user interact with them. It has a few simple options to undo moves, reset the board to a new game, and enable a random-mover "AI". It supports a few variants which I selected, and it's very easy to add new variants assuming they work with the currently-existing limited setup (8x8 board only, mostly standard pieces + chancellor and archbishop, no pockets/piece dropping, etc).
