Great content Man. Thank you!

It was a great session…👍

Gaurav sen is a Indian tech Phenomenon.

I have a few thoughts on the design. One concern is the circular dependency between the board and the pieces. It's important to avoid this kind of dependency. Additionally, allowing each piece to decide whether a move is valid or not would make the application less extensible. For example, if we wanted to extend the application to support Chess960, where the rules for castling are different, it would be problematic. Therefore, the solution is to not let the pieces determine the validity of moves. Instead, we can introduce a separate class called "MoveValidator" that has access to the entire board. This MoveValidator can perform global validations, such as checking whether a player is in check or not. To achieve this, we can define a PieceMoveValidator interface that each piece class can implement. For instance, we can have implementations like PawnMoveValidator, RookMoveValidator, etc. This approach ensures that the pieces remain separate entities from the board and do not need to be concerned with the rules. By introducing the MoveValidator interface, we can easily incorporate the rules of different chess variants. If we wanted to switch from normal chess to Chess960, we would only need to replace the MoveValidator with a chess960MoveValidator. Even in the case of Chess960, most of the pieces can reuse the PieceMoveValidator, except for the king, which has different rules for castling.

Great video. I'm finding it difficult to understand the code uploaded to GIT. Its really huge. What is the expectation in an LLD interview (senior backend engineer) ? a) your code from live video, OR b) the code uploaded to GIT ? c) something in-between a and b Thanks in advance.

How a Piece class can contain Board class object ? You designed Piece class by composing Board and Position object in it. It should be like this Board should contain Various Positions ( 8 * 8) . Each Position can contain a Piece or not.

I saw your chess engine source code . Did you already go through some existing chess engine references to build that chess engine or built all from scratch by yourself ?

It's from scratch. I have been writing code like that since 5 years, so it's easier to do with practice.
