Become a sponsor to Niklas Fiekas

Hi there!

With your sponsorship I'll be able to pay infrastructure for software projects working with large collections of chess games or endgame databases (e.g., https://syzygy-tables.info/ and https://op1-tables.info).


For projects tailored specifically for lichess.org (fishnet, lila-*), consider donating directly to lichess.org.
