First off, hello everybody, tis my first post and I'm really happy to find this place.

I am a programmer and am building a Gui app in the spirit of Arena on with WPF for fun. I've gotten it hooked up to UCI engines and can render out a game. But I was looking around for something to use in the GUI for move validation and other graphics stuff (e.g. show all valid moves, show checking pieces), and didn't find much. Searches and scans of this forum didn't turn up as much as I was hoping to find, though I haven't been exhaustive.

Has anyone put together a (foss) basic chess gui support library that is well tested and supported that I just have missed in my searches, or does such a critter just not really exist?
