He is primary author of the [[UCI]] compatible [[Chess#Variants|chess variant]] [[:Category:Open Source|open source]] engine [[CrazyAra]], with focus on playing [[Crazyhose]], and its classical chess counterpart [[CrazyAra#ClassicAra|ClassicAra]].
CrazyAra started in summer 2018 as a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Academic_term#Synonyms semester] project by Johannes Czech along with [[Moritz Willig]] and [[Alena Beyer]] for the course ''Deep Learning: Methods and Architectures'' at TU Darmstadt, and was entirely written in [[Python]].
