# turncoat

A minimalistic bitboard based UCI chess engine written in Haskell with a strong focus on a clear and modular implementation with adequate performance when compared with other open source chess engines.
A minimalistic bitboard based UCI chess engine written in Haskell with a strong focus on a clear and modular implementation with adequate performance when compared with other open source engines.

It relies heavily on GHC as well as strictness annotations in order to optimize a high level program that leverages laziness in key areas (such as staged move generation and ordering) producing an efficient binary that can compete in a field where lower level languages (C, C++, Rust) are usually employed.
