Hello,
can anyone of you build a Windows executable version for 32 or 64 bit please?

https://github.com/niklasf/python-chess/releases
Only the source code is there available.
Best wishes,
Norbert

It's not a chess engine
python-chess is a pure Python chess library with move generation, move validation and support for common formats

Do Python programs have executables? I thought Python was an interpreted language.

Then what you need is download the library, not compile it, you already have python installed (
https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/) so just run this command to install the library
Code: Select all
pip install python-chess[engine,gaviota]
That's all
