Pretty sure none of the GUI parts are open sourced.

  Chess.app is open source! https://opensource.apple.com/source/Chess/Chess-318/ https://opensource.apple.com/source/Chess/Chess-318/

    TextEdit, too! You can find it as sample code in the developer documentation.

      And text edit is the only app I had that would open a 6gb csv file I had. I don't have sublime text but I wonder if it would do it.

        Based on my experience with large JS files.... I doubt it
        • DonaldPShimoda 9y ago
          ? I've used Sublime to open ~10GB files. It's often the only thing that'll open them. They pride themselves on that ability (among others).

            Yeah, sublime is astonishingly fast. Obviously much better than electron-based editors.

            If it’s plain text maybe but I’ve found as soon as a syntax highlighter or any parser has to run on it it locks up. 2-3mb JS files brought it to a crawl, and I didn’t have many plugins btw.

    Ah. I see why this style is called Grass. https://opensource.apple.com/source/Chess/Chess-318/Styles/Grass/Border@2x.png https://opensource.apple.com/source/Chess/Chess-318/Styles/G...

    Interesting, Do you know how to grab a copy?

        Kudos! I'd love to see the game logic.

          The game engine itself is a pretty much off the shelf version of Sjeng: https://www.sjeng.org/indexold.html https://www.sjeng.org/indexold.html
          • gsnedders 9y ago
            That's interesting, given Chess has a near identical UI to the old NeXTSTEP Chess.app, which predates Sjeng!
            • microtherion 9y ago
              The initial board perspective is similar, but otherwise, the two apps are quite different (One obvious difference is that NeXTStep Chess.app used a bitmapped board with a fixed perspective). For comparison, the source of the older Chess is also available, in https://opensource.apple.com/release/mac-os-x-1015.html https://opensource.apple.com/release/mac-os-x-1015.html though some parts might no longer compile.
