Chinese Chess FEN Load and Export

Save, share, and restore positions quickly for review, teaching, and analysis.

FEN is useful because it compresses a board position into one line of text, which makes a position easy to save, search, share, and reload. For review, it is more precise than a screenshot. For teaching, it is more consistent than a verbal description. For continuing analysis across devices, it is faster than copying a full game record. Once you understand the basics, you can turn “I saw this position” into “I can recreate this position anytime.”
