Found multiple bugs in the puzzle area. If you can give mate in more than one way (multiple correct moves for the last move) it sometimes says your move was incorrect which is not.

#12Marketing section isn't helping. Some over the top claims mixed with some lies. You are not winning any favors with it. It's clear domain knowledge is lacking in this project. Things like not numbering moves in engine lines, not naming the engine you are using, showing an eval from a point of view of a side to play (usual convetion is to show it from white's point of view so positive eval means better for white, nega…

#13claims to use "the strongest [chess] engine out there" - then doesn't name it? presumably this is equivalent to stockfish or leela, or AlphaZero. not saying what's "behind the curtain" => fail. fwiw, lichess.org is free, stable, open source and uses strongest engines: stockfish, leela, and is free.

#18feedback - I tried the puzzles. 1) they all seem trivial and don't escalate in difficulty fast enough 2) I got stuck on the 14th - I'm making the correct move, but nothing happens.

I used the puzzles provided by lichess themselves. So, could be problem in my code. I will work towards making it more difficult and letting users choose the level of difficulty. Thanks for the feedback!
