A project built to honor Daniel Naroditsky’s incredible speedrun series
As a subpar programmer, I wanted to commemorate Daniel Naroditsky the best way that I know how. This is chess-memory.com.
The site allows you to play through games on an analysis board. At each position, it checks against the over 29,000 unique positions that Danya has reached throughout his speedrun series, and links to the timestamps in all matching videos using chess.com game data.
I'm not a frontend dev, so the UI is pretty messy for smaller devices. But I figured it is worth posting now while I continue to improve it. If there are any developers who would like to contribute to the site's improvement, I made the GitHub public.
Manually timestamping his 500+ videos was my grieving process, and a reminder of what a positive light Danya has been for so many years. I hope some of you find this helpful with your chess improvement, I will be keeping the site free and public indefinitely
