chess-tui is a terminal-based chess game which you can play chess locally, and play Lichess games all from the terminal.
It supports two player local games, has support for universal chess interface (UCI) chess engines such as Stockfish, you can play against the computer and online Lichess matches. Users can run chess-tui on macOS, Linux, and Windows.
Whilst playing against the computer, you can configure the bot difficulty and the game mode you want to play. For local multi-player games, you can play against other players on the same network or remotely and for Lichess integration, you need a Lichess token to play with other Lichess users.
chess-tui is best for general chess players, Lichess users and competitive chess players and hobbyists who want quick games, or practice playing chess or need a TUI for Lichess without opening a browser.
