ChessView - Chess Game Analyzer

"Every chess player knows this frustration: You've just finished a game, and you know something important happened, but you can't quite grasp what. I'd stare at my phone screen with a PGN file I couldn't properly view, desperately trying to understand why I lost that critical position.

I'd copy my games to ChatGPT, hoping for insights, but got generic responses like 'good move' or 'bad move' - no board, no context, no real understanding. When I found an interesting tactical sequence in a chess book, I'd spend ages manually setting up pieces on a physical board just to see what the author meant. Even analyzing a simple 5-move combination became a tedious exercise in piece placement.

I couldn't visualize the next move in complex positions. I couldn't open PGN files on my phone to actually see what was happening on the board. I couldn't follow along with master games or study material without constantly reconstructing positions by hand.

Every improvement attempt felt like swimming upstream. That's when I realized I needed to build the tool I wished existed - one that would show me the actual position while providing meaningful analysis, let me follow any sequence of moves instantly, and help me truly understand what was happening on the board.

That's why I created ChessView."
