Networked multiplayer chess in your browser.

Inspired by another project of mine,
[Basic Browser Chess](https://code.google.com/p/basic-browser-chess/) (BBC).

The plan was to extend BBC and add online multiplayer to it, but we created
a new project instead.

Graham Sharp ([@pounddefine](https://github.com/pounddefine)) wrote the code.
I designed the interface and wrote the [technical paper](report.pdf).

The project was for an introductory networking course; we spent about 3-4 days
on the project.

I just want to try it out!
--------------------------

You'll need to run the JAR file.
Our [release page](https://github.com/dideler/chess-park/releases/tag/v1.0.0)
contains instructions on how to get started.
(There's also a [chess.jar](dist/chess.jar) file in the repository.)

For more detailed information, please do read our fantastic [paper](report.pdf).
