Chess Puzzles 3d (v2)

Copyright 2022 Steven Mycynek

Basics

This is my first major rewrite of the chess-puzzles 3d site at This is my first major rewrite of the older "Chess-puzzles 3d" site at https://stevenvictor.net/chessGL/

The older site was written in raw WebGL with all shading math done by hand. This new site uses ThreeJs.

It takes data from chess puzzles generated from https://stevenvictor.net/chess and renders them in WebGL using .gltf models created in https://cad.onshape.com

Aside from nicer shading, it supports textures, tilt/zoom, and animation.

Usage

npm install and...

.\prep.sh -- build and zip for deployment

.\run -- run locally
