Built off my frontend Chess.js API.
Check out the gh-pages
branch of this repo, along with its corresponding live demo. There you will find a simple, purely frontend Chess game (don't forget to check out the "Game Options" in the footer of the demo ;)).
Everyone knows that playing chess with a friend is way more fun than by yourself. To play with a friend, check out the more robust, Ruby On Rails-backed, websockets-enabled version in the master
branch of this repo. It is also running at chs.xyz.
To play chess online with a friend, simply:
- Goto chs.xyz.
- Grab the auto-generated URL (will be in the form of
chs.xyz/XYZ
). - Give that URL to your friend, and tell them to connect there.
- When they connect, you're good to go!
Since this is my first project involving Websockets, it is entirely possible that it is buggy, if so, feel free to email me ([email protected]), or to open an issue to report it. Thanks!
