I made https://rootshirechess.glitch.me https://rootshirechess.glitch.me (desktop chrome works best atm) so my kids could play chess and have a video chat with grandparents and cousins. I publicized it a little and have been happy to see that several people are enjoying it.
It uses Nodejs, socket.io, chessboard.js, and Jitsi. For a while I was using a 3rd party chess embed but that didn’t give me unique rooms so I rolled my own w socket.io. Now I just have to worry about glitch.me quota. I figured if it gets popular I’ll just do paid glitch.
