Looks like we are one step closer to a non-cheating version... :)

Awesome work!
But I notice some discrepancy between the results from the gnubg-core-demo website and my local
version of GnuBG. For example, this position:
XGID=---B-bD-C--AcC--bb-db---B-:0:0:1:22:0:4:0:7:10
At 2-ply, for the move 24/22 24/22 13/11 6/4
gnubg-core-demo gives -0.638
my local GnubG gives -0.269
(For what it's worth, XG at 3 ply gives -0.307)

Hi everyone,
I've built a minimal and portable version of GNU Backgammon that includes only the core logic —
everything else has been stripped
away, including the dependency on GLib.
This version is specifically designed for the web: it loads fast, performs very well even on
mobile devices, and is extremely easy
to use. Of course, it can also be used directly in C projects if needed.
You can try a very basic web interface here:
https://ascottix.github.io/gnubgcore/gnubg-core-demo.html
The repo is here:
https://github.com/ascottix/gnubg-core
I'd be happy to share more details if there's interest, and I'm open to
feedback or suggestions.
Cheers,
Alessandro
