The beginner
Don't feel that you have to set out all your pieces. Start with the pawns, then add the pieces. Understand how a pair of bishops can dominate the board, or the rooks can take paws in the endgame, and why the queen and knight can work together so well.
Once you know the basics, use online resources to play and help analyse games. Find human opponents too. If you become really serious, join a chess club in your area.

Study the games of great masters of the past
Find a player you like and follow their career. For example, Bobby Fisher played clear and understandable. Other legendary figures include Morphy, Alekhine, Capablanca, Tal, Korchnoi and Shirov.
If you want to start playing over-the-board tournaments, you need to join the chess federation in your country. You will get a rating after playing a certain number of official games.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
