'''Conqueror,'''<br/>
an [[UCI]] compatible chess program by [[Aditya Pande]]. It is written in [[Cpp|C++]], released as [[:Category:Open Source|open source software]] under [[Free Software Foundation#GPL|GPLv3 license]].
It's development started in June 2014 and is being improved for better performance and a more intricate evaluation scheme.
The engine supports UCI GUIs like [[Arena]], [[ChessGUI]], etc. and the support has been extended to latest [[WinBoard|WinBoard GUI]] but requires some configuration.
