Chess

This is a chess application that supports playing on one or two devices. It includes features such as annotations, undoing moves, saving and loading to/from files, and multiplayer chat.

I created the base game, annotations, saving, and sound myself. The multiplayer support and GUI were created during a high school AP CS project along with Amine and Sanaa.

How To Play

*Make sure to open the folder containing the code, and not any parent folder

Playing on one device:

1. Run Coordinator.java

Playing on two devices:

• Server setup
  1. Run getIP.bat (Windows) or getIP.sh (Mac)
  2. Run Server.java in the terminal with a port number (ex. "java Server 1234")
• Player connection
  1. Run Coordinator.java in the terminal with the IP address, port number, username, and color (0 for white, 1 for black) in that order (ex. "java Coordinator 127.0.0.1 1234 RH809 0")
