- Worth noticing
- Opening labels use Lichess’s CC0 dataset; perft counts and first-five-move figures are calculated in the visitor’s browser.
Field notes
The map is organized around the current board position: each ring represents a later move, and selecting a slice plays it before opening that branch. The site also exposes perft counts, which it says are calculated in the visitor’s browser, and credits Lichess’s CC0 opening dataset. A separate upload panel accepts PGN text or a Chess.com or Lichess link for replay.
