Computer Chess – Adam Berent

Formally (ChessBin.com) this is a blog documenting my rash decision in mid 2008 to learn to program my own Chess Game.

During this project I have learned quite a bit about the art of Computer Chess and amazingly I managed to build an reasonably strong chess engine.

Recently I uploaded the source code to the Chess Bin engine to GitHub. It has been converted to .NET core and new version of .NET that is available on multiple platforms. I may from time to time update this version as new features in .NET core become available.
