Real chess fans will be happy (I promise!).
This is a commercial project. Your can try it for free without the registration and buy if you like it!
The program has a lot of features that will be very attractive for the real chess fans!
It was implemented not yesterday. I've started implementing it for pocketbook about 1 year ago
