Welcome to the chess wiki!

The current chess architecture looks as following:

Engine: 'Position' (including historical information like en passant); getting valid moves from squares; generating new positions.

Player: interface with different implementations (potentially injectable) - this interface might be implemented by everybody

Current Player implementations:

• SimpleEnginePlayer is just 2-mover for demo and manual testing.
• First real power player will be LegalMover
• GUI-based Player (WinboardPlayer) is a player backed by some Winboard opponent. It's the integration place thanks to which I can avoid developing by own UI. It must be a careful implementation of Winboard protocol.
