| - For brownie points, write a basic and functional chess engine. You may use a library for UI and legal move generation (or maybe not for double brownie points). Your focus should be implementing a custom evaluation function and a Minimax search function (depth 2 or 3) that allows the computer to play a valid game against a human in the terminal. | ||

| - A GitHub repository which contains your code (if any) along with a .md file or any other form of documentation containing your learning process is the expected end product. |

For teaching tasks, asking them to make a presetation of sorts is better than asking the to just write code. Tbh, writing code is not even necessary.
One of the main reasons why we tried to avoid coding tasks is because people use AI or just copy code from somewhere and explain it on a high level. Teaching tasks were much better to judge someone.

This section is unnecessary.

Writing a full chess engine might not be possible in the given time. It's fine for Brownie points. However, it migh be possible to write some kind of very simple board evaluation algorithm or a part of it. Maybe that could be part of the core task?
