Chess.com Player Bot
Oh, sorry! I didn't pay attention. I put in red like that, no matter the background, they will be able to see
It was the complication. I had several options. The first was to simply modify the HTML page to do what I wanted, and save everything, or create a brand new page with my own chessboard. For the Alpha version I created my own page, but for the next version I will implement on the Chess.com page of bots by modifying the page by myself
Hello,
I am currently working on a Chrome extension project that generates a Chess.com bot based on the player's username entered in the box. The goal is quite clear: to create a bot of a specific player in order to prepare against them (for a tournament, for example). The method used is fairly simple but quite effective. I took StockFish 17 as the base computer.
Obviously, it is much too powerful to represent the level of a player. So, what I did is take all the characteristics of the player (Elo, strategic and tactical level, time spent per move according to the type of position and the piece moved...) and I will constrain StockFish to use only this set of characteristics! It may sound a bit unlikely, but it is effective.
To define all the characteristics, I will use the insights system from Chess.com. This is perfect because it summarizes all the characteristics needed to correctly define a player's strength! It encompasses (when the number of games is high enough) the average accuracy, the opponent’s ranking, the game forms... I won't go into detail about the method used because that's not the purpose of this post.
What I'm looking for is a developer who can assist me in creating the plugin. I have a few people here and there helping me, but none on a long-term basis. I'm looking for someone who is well-versed in JavaScript and HTML.
This is a request for collaboration with shared merits, so there is no remuneration.
If you are interested, add me on Discord so I can present the project to you in more detail!
