Bills Bare Bones Chess aka Basic-Chess,
a WinBoard compliant, didactic open source chess program by Bill Jordan, designed to show how a chess engine might work
[1], written in C++. With some modifications, Bills Bare Bones Chess was later released as Basic-Chess on GitHub [2], licensed under the GPL version 3, along with an e-Book explaining the program [3].
Bills Bare Bones Chess utilizes a one-dimensional 8x8 board, and applies alpha-beta search with transposition table, check extensions, capture search and history heuristic inside the iterative deepening loop.
The simple evaluation relies on material, piece-square tables and pawn structure scores.
