## Preamble
The main goal of my work is to build Stockfish as a shared library,
so that it can be used with the latest Android SDK (currently 30).
Additionally, I replaced all 'exit' statements with exceptions and
removed the large nnue file download from build when nnue is opted out.<br>
This repository is a fork from the official Stockfish repository
and most probably it will stay this way.
SF people think that the suggested updates are too large which is
probably true, considering that I had to change the program architecture.
I tried my best to minimize the code impact, but apparently I failed.<br>
It is possible to split this work into smaller, more manageable
parts, but to think that each update will cause the long discussion,
taking into account that most SF people believe that it is ok for
a program to crash and some other differences of opinions, I have decided
to leave it as is.<br>
To prove the concept, I created a simple GUI-minimalistic Android
program that is built with SDK 30. It does not verify any user's input
(which is intentional), but non the less it should not crash.
<b>If it still crashes, it's all on me.
Please report it and I'll fix it ASAIC.</b>
