Description

Chessed is a one-of-a-kind platform to experience chess like never before. Built using React and TypeScript, it transforms the timeless two-player game into an engaging four-player chess experience.

This platform is for the curious, creative, and strategic minds who want to explore something more than the conventional chessboard. Whether you’re teaming up or playing solo, Chessed offers:

• Move suggestions, turn validation, and dynamic piece movement.
• Advanced mechanics like castling, pawn promotion, and check detection.
• Game termination features for checkmate scenarios.

Chessed is not just a game—it’s a journey into the evolving world of chess!
