A multiplayer online chess platform built with React, Node.js, and TypeScript, using dedicated WebSocket servers for real-time gameplay and Redis for move queuing. It supports user sign-up, matchmaking, live move play, and an Elo-style rating system.

Use cases

• play chess online against other players in real time
• self-host a multiplayer chess server
• matchmaking for chess games with rating system
• learn how to build real-time games with websockets
• track chess rating like standard Elo
• run a chess tournament platform locally

When to choose

• you want a self-hosted real-time chess platform
• you want a TypeScript monorepo example of websockets, Redis, and Postgres working together
• you need matchmaking and Elo rating out of the box

When to avoid

• you need a polished production chess site with mobile apps
• you need single-player play against a chess engine/AI
• you require a permissively licensed project since this repo has no license file
