Chesster Moderator Bot for Lichess45+45

CHESSTER

Introduction

This bot was created to help moderate the Lichess45+45 league.

It has a simple interface that integrates our Slack team, with Lichess and Website HTTP API.

If you have any issues, reach out to me here on github or on Slack.

Cheers. Andrew W. Haddad
