A professional, lightweight browser extension designed to track live chess broadcasts from Lichess.org. This extension provides real-time evaluation bars, player clocks, and game results in a compact, dark-themed popup.
- Live Broadcast Tracking: Takes the top tournaments directly from the Lichess API
- Smart round Selection: Always loads the current round of the tournament first.
- Eval Bar: When available, fetch the position eval from the Lichess API and show it with an eval bar on the left. Also used for final results.
- Persistent Selection: Remembers your last selected tournament even after closing the browser or popup.
- Click game for full analysis: You can click the game cards on the popup to open a small tab with the full game analysis on Lichess.
- Lichess Dark Theme: A clean UI inspired by the Lichess color palette
- Live Result Badges: Displays game scores (1-0, 0-1, ½-½) directly in the player list once games conclude.
IMPORTANT NOTE: This extension relies heavily on the Lichess Broadcast API. Sometimes, limitations on the API can result on player clock information or computer eval to be missing or inaccurate.
