Pawn-Appetit, Chess GUI

Post by Frank Quisinsky »

Hi there,

I got a tip for a Chess GUI per E-Mail.
I don't know this project but after my first look very interesting.

yet another GUI, they usually start ambitiously and then after a while
it fades out.
about a year ago i made the suggestion to setup a Discord group for chess GUI's
(instead of only engines).still think this can be useful

I wish a Chess GUI was also being developed by team of developers/contributors, as open source, similar to Stockfish/Lichess. GUI's have lots of potential.

This is one of two new Chess GUI for engine I saw in last month. Another is ChessMD, https://chessmd.org

Pawn-Appeit uses rust, Tauri, more like a web based GUI and ChessMd uses C++,QT, more like a GTK GUI. The GUI style are quite different, but both looks great.
