The computer analysis is possible thanks to Fabien Letouzey's open source draughts engine Scan 3.1: https://github.com/rhalbersma/scan

Many words of thanks must be expressed to the lichess developers, whose open source work made all of this possible:
- Vincent Velociter (https://github.com/veloce), lead developer of the lichess app which was forked to create the lidraughts app
- Thibault Duplessis (https://github.com/ornicar), creator of lichess.org, without whom there would be no lidraughts.org in the first place
- All others who contributed over the years, too many to mention
