Questions about pre-made repertoires

What is a pre-made repertoire?

A complete set of opening lines for one colour, prepared by a creator or built from a strong player's games, that you can add to Chessbook in one click and start drilling.

Are the pre-made repertoires free?

Yes. Adding one is free and needs no signup. The free Starter plan holds up to 200 moves; Chessbook Pro removes the limit.

Do I have to learn every line?

No. Chessbook trims each repertoire to the moves that actually occur at your rating, and the coverage report shows which gaps are worth closing next.

Or build your own

Chessbook's Autofill builds a full repertoire from the moves opponents play at your rating, and you can mix in lines from any book, course or study.
