blupig-gomoku

A Gomoku (五子棋, Five in a Row) AI with a custom heuristic negamax algorithm with alpha-beta pruning and built-in rules and cut-offs, written in C++.

It provides:

• A REST API (used by the HTML client)
• A CLI interface
• The stdin / stdout based protocol used in Gomocup

Currently runs single-threaded, supports only Gomoku rules, future plans:

• MCTS with parallelization
• Self-learning

A live demo is hosted on: https://apps.yunzhu.li/gomoku
