Pleco | A Rust-based re-write of the Stockfish Chess Engine | Artificial Intelligence library

Pleco is a Rust library typically used in Artificial Intelligence applications. Pleco has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has a Permissive License and it has low support. You can download it from GitHub.

Pleco is a chess Engine & Library derived from Stockfish, written entirely in Rust. This project is split into two crates, pleco, which contains the library functionality, and pleco_engine, which contains the UCI (Universal Chess Interface) compatible engine. The overall goal for this project is to utilize the efficiency of Rust to create a Chess AI matching the speed of modern chess engines. For the engine, the majority of the code is a direct port of Stockfish's C++ code. See their website for more information about the engine. As such, the credit for all of the advanced algorithms used for searching, evaluation, and many others, go directly to the maintainers and authors of Stockfish. This project is for speed comparisons between the two languages, as well as for educational purposes.
