The Best Online Chess Platform Ever ! Its compeletly free, Best user interface, perfect game analysis, Best puzzels, Fastest server, Quick pairing, and many more. And yup I have a suggestion too please make the board lettle small in analysis mode so that we can see moves played below and other things too, kepp it same in games but during analysis it should be little short. Anyways its the Best !!!! I hope you guys will kepp improving it 😉

I really like the open source of it, and thank you for making this free. I have a suggestion: please make the number of premoves unlimited, add profile feature, and add the national rating for the Philippines in the rating settings. I hope you notice my suggestion. Thank you.
