Show HN: chessable, correspondence chess for modern devices

chessable is a side project I’ve been working on, and it has grown into an MVP of sorts, though it's really more of an experiment.

It's a correspondence chess web application that makes use of a responsive design. The aim is for it to work well on modern mobile & desktop browsers, so that users can fit casual games of chess into a busy, mobile, schedule.

I submitted it on Hackful Europe (http://hackful.com/posts/442) about a month ago, but I’ve managed to get some time this weekend to update it and so I’m posting it here now.

Any feedback, thoughts, or suggestions would be very welcome.

Thanks, Austin

I went to chessable.co.uk on my phone (less typing without the www. and the https://) and I got a security warning. I presume you're redirecting http://chessable.co.uk → https://chessable.co.uk → https://www.chessable.co.uk and the warning is for the middle address.

On this page --- https://www.chessable.co.uk/players --- the whole grey box for each chesser should be a link, not just their username.

Thanks for the heads up on the security warning, I had a similar problem before and thought I fixed it. I'll look into it again.

I think making the whole player box a link would work great, so I'll get that done.

Thanks for your feedback, Austin.
