Knights Travails

Description

Knight's Travails is an interactive web application that demonstrates the ability of a knight on a chessboard to move from one square to any other square, given enough steps. This project serves as an implementation of finding the shortest path between a knight and its destination using a breadth-first search algorithm. Take a peek at pathfinder.js file.

This project was completed as a part of The Odin Project. Here's the project source.
