Chess Board Editor
Free chess board editor. Place, move and remove pieces to build any position, then share it or play it out. No signup and no download.
Build any position you like. Drag pieces onto the board, remove them, move them anywhere, and ignore the rules while you set things up - the editor does not enforce legal moves until you start playing.
What you can use it for
- Teaching - set up a position and walk someone through the idea one move at a time.
- Studying an endgame - strip the board down to a king and pawn and replay the technique until it sticks.
- Recreating a game - rebuild a position you got wrong and try the alternative line.
- Making a puzzle - construct a mate and share the position with a friend.
Sharing a position
Any position you build can be shared as a link or a code, so the person who opens it sees exactly the board you set up. Positions use the compact Pocket Shuffle Chess board with standard piece movement.
