Introduction:

Chess, a timeless board game cherished for centuries, presents an intriguing challenge for modern
digital adaptation. In this project proposal, we aim to delve into the realm of Object-Oriented
Programming (OOP) using Java to develop an immersive and fully functional digital chess game.
This endeavor not only provides a platform to showcase our proficiency in Java programming but
also offers an opportunity to explore the intricacies of OOP principles through the lens of this iconic
game.
