# Chess Random Ness

Recently I came across [an old tweet of mine](https://twitter.com/potherca/status/1445377701896990727?s=20&t=H_hFXDZdm_d_yZLlEC6lzg)

about [an example of Chessboard.js where both sides are played by `Math.random()`](https://chessboardjs.com/examples/5002)

For fun, I made [a Codepen based on that example](https://codepen.io/potherca/full/zYpzjqX) that is slightly more sped up.

Of course, as these things do, one thing led to another, so I present to you: CRN (Chess Random Ness)

This is basically a more elaborate version of the orignal demo, with some buttons added and some statistics thrown in.

You can see it in action at: https://blog.pother.ca/chess-random-ness/
