Find chess here on limewire. Link expires in one week.

Building upon the principles of my chat application, this is another implementation to push the limits of what’s possible inside the termux environment.

This script includes all the pieces needed to run a world wide accessable chess game from your pocket. While the implementation of chess isn’t perfect by any means, it has been a great learning expirence to figure out all the little parts of what makes a interactive webserver tick.

For testing, I did implement cloudflared within the script just to see if I can host to the clearnet as well. It worked!

    I’m confused, you implemented the graphical chess game in the terminal? Or you implemented a web server and pointed a non-termux browser at it?

    I didn’t know about cloudflared, pretty cool. I just use a VPS and (if applicable) an ssh reverse proxy for that.

      Yes termux is the webserver here and the client is the web browser now. This simplifies the use case scenario alot since most devices have a browser.
