I am Fabian Fichter, a software developer in bioinformatics, mainly experienced with Python and C++, with focus on algorithms, data analysis, and automation. I very much enjoy playing abstract strategy board games, especially chess and related games, and developing open source software for them.

My current main open source project is Fairy-Stockfish, a chess variant engine playing on top level at a large variety of chess-like games and being used on several chess and chess variant websites, such as lichess.org and pychess.org. Also see the Fairy-Stockfish github organization.
