Thanks

Can you explain what you're trying to do? Do you mean for fishnet? or the browser engine?

KaKi87 commented 6 months ago

Do you mean for fishnet?

Yes, I think.

The truth is, I don't really know how Lichess or Stockfish works, not even chess in general, but a friend mentioned they're frustrated with the computation depth limits of the main Lichess instance, and considered paying for a premium provider like Chessify, but since I already have a server that's quite powerful, I'd like to try hosting one myself with higher parameters for them to use for free.

Thanks

The Analysis page allows you connect to an External Engine that you can have running on your own machine https://lichess.org/api#tag/External-engine

You could either write your own client to connect to those API endpoints or try https://github.com/fitztrev/lichess-tauri

So I don't actually have to host a Lichess instance, but only an engine, so that they could use lichess-tauri to connect to it ?

What do I have to install on my server then ?

Thanks

fitztrev commented 6 months ago

No server is required. The app and engine would be run locally.

Unfortunately, their personal computer isn't powerful enough for that, they already tried. Thanks
