Chess Repertoire Builder Beta Update

Tried it and it is now my only practice ground to create/prepare/train the Opening lines. Would highly recommend it.

Not yet, I will produce a few when we have a final first release. Things are still in flux as it is a beta, so no video yet, hopefully the help document will be enough to get started.

My biggest question going into potentially using a platform like this is, "how do you ensure repertoires are protected and safe?" I, myself, am not that important to be prepped against, but I think it's something you have to keep in mind building this thing for very serious players to want to utilize it.

That is a very important question and something that I have been asked alot about, so am going to put that into a FAQ. At the moment, to enable speed a smooth experience, your repertoire data is not encrypted, as that would slow down the experience. But the database has been hardened and protected by user access rights.

I have looked into password locking the repertoire something that I am seriously considering i.e. low the user to unencrypt, edit, encrypt afterwards, but this will be at a later date.

If you have serious prep or a titled players with good home cooking, I think Chessbase would be the way to gonat the moment.

Sounds awesome, but is it usable with variants? (atomic for example?)

I have tried the repertoire trainer, i see a lot of good work, congratulations!
But i also don't understand a few things.
Firstly, a repertoire is by definition the entirety, in my opinion there is therefore actually no “repertoire 1”, “repertoire 2”, etc.. But ok, in the end that's just a word, maybe it means “opening variations”.

Secondly, if I enter one of my white opening variations, e.g. in the Scotch Game, i can enter black variations, not just one.
Does the trainer then only display one variation at a time? How to display the others?
I would have expected it to give me the variations that I want to train.
From my point of view, it's impractical if you have to reproduce every alternative opening move of your opponent with a new “repertoire”. After all, you learn a “tree”, not individual “branches”.
I kindly ask for clarification, perhaps I have overlooked something fundamental.

This is just standard chess, there are no plans for variants.
