Chess (FEN)
Compatible with FEN / Lichess export
Chess positions from Forsyth–Edwards Notation. Paste any FEN — from Lichess, chess.com, PGN headers — and get a print-quality board with Unicode pieces, file/rank labels, and an optional side-to-move pip. Stack multiple FENs separated by blank lines for opening sequences or tactical puzzles.
