open source chess.com desktop application

Easy installation with script for Linux, EXE installation for Windows. You can download it from Github and use it quickly.

First, it is a bit suspicious when I quote and there are 2 inches of space I can't delete. The next thing is when I go to the download section, I see Lucas Chess mentioned. Third, I suggest people not download anything until you get screenshots showing what you are going to get. When you use .sh files they could be for malicious reasons. Not saying m3tozz is doing anything bad, but red flags are being raised here. In contrast, Hans Niemann's site seems rather innocuous because he is pretty much copying chess.com. So, we can see and compare.

I suggest m3tozz provide some kind of demo/presentation of it before. In fact, the Lucas Chess referred to has a site with plenty of screenshots on their site and in Google images.

The chess.sh working logic of file is very simple, if you want to install it, you do --install, this way it compiles the and files inside it and creates a shortcut, if you want, You can access chess.sh content here, I'm not hiding anything, open source is the best.

What's that is, isn't a Chess.com desktop application. At best it's a website wrapper.

The description says "Simple, Electron-based Chess.com Client". I have developed a useful alternative where you can play chess directly in a separate window, like a separate application, and I am sure many people need it

Use the browser extension chessHelper if you want an enhanced experience. This is literally just a browser window which fools you into believing it's an application.

It is, there is no new functionality. All this does is trick you into thinking that it's a standalone app when in reality it's not. Vesktop is an actual improvement off discord because it provides more functionality. This does not.

Dude, I already wrote about the chess.com client made with electron in the github description.

Electron is just a browser wrapper.

It doesn't actually add anything
