Description
You will be helping me develop a chess bot, for playing chess online. The application will enter online chess games, such as lichess.org or chess.com, and will imitate a real user.

We will start by making a decision helper. The helper will read the information from the chess gaming site and tell the player, a real person, what move to make on the site.

The next step will be to let the bot act by itself without a physical player. The bot will be able to log in as a user and play by itself.

We will create both a decision engine and a data source & execution tool. This means that we will be letting our application extract data from the human-readable online chess website. The execution part of the tool will then be interacting with the website. See attached image.

Here is a typical use case scenario for using the bot:
1) User opens the bot and sees a list of online chess homepages. User chooses a homepage – for example chess.com.
2) The bot goes to the homepage and logs in to the homepage using the web-UI on the homepage. The bot uses credentials for an account from the homepage that is made in advance.
3) The bot identifies the available players and gives the user a list of players to play with. The user chooses a player.
4) The bot starts to play the game and the user can see what happens on the screen.
5) When the game is over the user can choose a new webpage to play from.


You will work part time. It's a long time project where you'll sometimes work more and sometimes less, depending on need and budget.

You will be taking on assignments from me and working with them on weekly sprints. We will be using Gitflow in our cooperation. You may be working with other programmers, or alone during different periods of the project.

Key skills needed:
* Programming and working structured
* Following naming conventions
* Good commenting
* Reusing code
* Using git & version control
* getting the whole picture with general instructions
* Finding improvements of current code - for future time saving, security and code quality

A successful engagement would be when you
* Always keep your promises, such as deadlines
* Ask when you don't understand
* Come with suggestions when you see improvements
* Are open with your strengths and weaknesses

This is an opportunity to get an interesting part time job, where you will have a lot of influence and will be able to see a project grow and improve.


Please answer the following questions in your cover letter:
1) Do you have suggestions to make this project run successfully?
2) What questions do you have about the project?
3) What are the biggest challenges to this job? Please motivate your answer.
4) How can the datasource and execution engine be done as easily as possible? Can we reuse any code or framework that you know about?
I'm not interested in reading anything about your past experiences.

I'm looking forward to reading your application. If you have any other questions or comments about the project, put them in the cover letter.
