New things added and bugs fixed!!!!!
added a circle that shows legal captures. checkmate message and square highlight when its check.
Now i will start adding a bot,i have 2 options, minimax or stockfish…. prob i will go with stockfish. but now i have to see whats minimax and whats good for this!
Soon i will add more messages (such as stalemate,repetition move draw,50 rule move draw) and analyze tab.

Good news and bad news.
Made the pieces move legal. added legal move highlights. fixed the selected piece highlight (i didnt show at devlog 3# but the selected piece highlight it showed only the upper part and the left part of the square).
The bad news is that when its blacks turn and you press white pieces accidentaly,you cant do anything….

Day 2 of making chess. right now (thanks to youtube and little help from AI) i added the pieces and put them in their place. now i have to make them move. from what i saw (and what chatgpt said) i can make them move with many lines of code (something manual) or with a help of chess.js. Asked AI whats the best and they said that its good with chess.js. Also i added an outline of the square you press/select.

My plan right now for this project is:
-making the pieces work and move, IN LEGAL WAY.
-adding bot/stockfish with diffrent levels
-tab to analyze your games
-probally like in chess.com/lichess.org,adding a “papersheet” of the moves that happen in the board
