#7Looks very interesting.
Somewhat related: I've recently wrote a code-walkthrough (in Clojure) of modeling chess-like games.

It's very basic and intended for teaching/learning functional programming, not a real library or engine like the OP.

#8Original creator of boardgame.io here. A pleasant surprise to see this here after many years.
More recently, I've been working on https://boardgamelab.app/, which uses a visual programming language to model game rules while also taking care of the UI layer.

boardgame.io was created as a personal open-source project while I was employed at Google. It is not an official Google product.
