AltME: REBOL3

Messages

Oldes: 23:10But it is cheating a little bit as the chess are written in JavaScript https://github.com/oakmac/chessboardjs/
GrahamC: 23:33huh? This is rebol javascript integration. All the graphics have to be done in JS.
Bo: 23:55That's really cool. Now I have to find some time to look at the source code.

GrahamC: 00:01I have this FAQ for those wanting to get started https://github.com/hostilefork/replpad-js/wiki/Basic---Getting-started
Bo: 00:05>> source move
move: make action! [ [
chess-move [text!] "use chess notation"
]...native code, no source available...

00:05I'll check out the FAQ. Thanks.
GrahamC: 00:13source is here https://gitlab.com/Zhaoshirong/rebol-chess/blob/master/create-board.reb
GrahamC: 00:22Ok, try this once your browser is working
http://metaeducation.s3.amazonaws.com/index.html?do=chess
and type
chiu-vs-jensen

00:23forget about the "ss" which is a typo

00:23a game of mine from over 40 years ago which I found on the net

GrahamC: 23:02Here's a little homage experiment

23:02go to http://metaeducation.s3.amazonaws.com/index.html

23:03What happens is that the JS looks for a file startup-sequence.reb and if it finds it executes it. This gives a table of downloads to renc binaries. Click on a link and it gives you the url to the latest binary for that OS tuple.

GrahamC: 00:13try this one https://metaeducation.s3.amazonaws.com/chess.html

00:13move the board out of the way, and then you can start typing chess moves

00:14eg. e2 e4 e7 e5 g1 f3 etc

00:14Have yet to implement castling, en passant and pawn promotion

00:15so the console has a hook that allows me to parse out chess moves and instead of sending them to the interpreter moves the pieces instead
eFishAnt: 03:03sweet chess game

GrahamC: 01:26 http://metaeducation.s3.amazonaws.com/chess.html
Now has pawn promotion, castling and en passant in my Rebol Javascript Wasm chess interpreter
