Feature request: Flashcard generator #84

Open chlebik opened 6 years ago

chlebik commented 6 years ago

LuasChess provides functionality that allows generating image with current board. It would be great if it could also provide 'flashcard generator'. It is a great way to practice chess when not in front of computer.

I see this functionality like this - set up position on the board, select from menu 'Generate flashcard' and a new screen appears. It contains view of current board, indicator who is about to move and a possibility to add some text, eg. 'Black just captured on F6. What is white best response in terms of center control'? There should be also place for an answer (on the separate flashcarsd 'side') - probably just single text or moves.

I am training right now using just FEN notation from my games/endings but it requires computer access and all this copy&paste is not that fun. Flashcard generation would be really nice.

I could try something like generating a docx document. What do you think ? It is possible to read it with LibreOffice, and generate a PDF, ....

Actually the format is not that important as these flashcards are mostly for printing and using without computer. DOCX will be just fine.
