ChessCam is a free web/mobile app to broadcast your chess games to the world from a video or live stream.

To see it in action, and learn how to broadcast games yourself, check out the following video.

Helping out

If you are interested in growing the project as a developer, product tester, etc. please message me on Lichess. I am always happy to chat and hear any ideas you have to offer.

The code is open-sourced at https://github.com/Pbatch/CameraChessWeb. Please comment any feature requests in the Issues tab and I'll get working on them right away. If you want to contribute to the code yourself that is also very welcome.

Let me know in the comments how ChessCam handles your games! :)
