Redesign the layout for touch-based devices
The current layout of this Chess GUI on touch devices (smartphones and tablets) is not intuitive.
Scrolling up and down to see the history of moves or setting up the engine's depth level is not elegant. An elegant approach would be if the options were tabbed without scrolling. It is like having a list of icons below the chessboard where each icon determines what gets displayed on the main viewport. There are also other approaches through the use of drop-down menus that can be adapted.
Contributors are always welcome to suggest and improve on this GUI in any way they find it appropriate.
It is good to note as well that this simple GUI uses two chessboards. One for the desktop and one for touch-based devices. It would be ideal in the future to use only one chessboard that works well on all devices.
