It serves as a front-end for many different chess services, including:</p>
<ul>
<li>
Chess engines that will run on your machine and play a game against you or help you analyze, such as GNU Chess, Crafty, or many others.</li>
</ul>
<p>XBoard runs on Unix and Unix-like systems that use the X Window System. The project also includes a port to 32-bit Windows systems called WinBoard.</p>
