Gomoku

Architecture

Frontend → FastAPI → Rust Engine

• FastAPI: thin routing layer (no logic)
• Rust: game state, rules, and AI

Notes

• All game data lives in Rust (in-memory)
• Python only forwards requests
• Communication is done via JSON (stdin/stdout)

Goal

Build a fast and correct Gomoku AI using a clean separation between API and engine.

Backend

cd backend
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install fastapi uvicorn
uvicorn main:app --reload

Rust Engine

Development

cargo run

(Later) optimized build

cargo build --release
