Flux Chess
by Phokham Nonava

Flux Chess is an attempt to write a computer chess engine entirely in Java. The speed of most Java Virtual Machines is improving nowadays. However compared to other C/C++ chess engines Flux is still slow (or maybe my algorithms are not that sophisticated?).

However I open sourced him, so everyone can take a peek at my coding errors. He's released under version 3 of the GPL and you can fork him at https://github.com/fluxroot/fluxchess. Also I gave him a new cozy home at http://fluxchess.com/.
