-Notes from the maintainer:
-
-> I started this project when I was still new to TS and full-stack development. Bad practices, confusing patterns, and messed up types are everywhere. Suggestions for improvements are very much welcome!
-
-> The client is currently being rewritten at the `frontend-refactor` branch ([#24](https://github.com/dotnize/chessu/pull/24)). Contributions to `main` that involve the frontend may get overwritten, but I'll try to cherry-pick those that can be applied to the new branch.
