Grandmaster is a chess application written in C++. This implementation includes features such as exporting the PGN of a game, and saving players and their ELO rating. Grandmaster is currently a work in progress.

This robot moves a random legal move each game. If you can't beat him, please delete Grandmaster from your computer.
Error: Player data is corrupt. Failed to load all players.
Someone has messed around with your saved data, and so not all players could be loaded. To fix the issue, either revert made changes to player.dat or delete the file. Grandmaster will generate a new save file, but you will lose all current players.
To run Grandmaster, run the following code:
git clone https://www.github.com/Xenonstory/Grandmaster
cd Grandmaster && make
