Body: <p>A family friend wants to teach her grandchild how to play chess. The problem is that, due to the pandemic, they live apart from each other, so she has to do this online. Is there some website where the players can set up the board by themselves and only then start playing i.e. a website where you start the game as you would if you were playing OTB, which is by first setting up the board?</p>
  <p>I am aware of Lichess' board editor (<a href="https://lichess.org/editor" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://lichess.org/editor</a>), which can be tweaked to work in the specific case from above (the kid can clear the board, set up the pieces by himself, send the invite link and then they may play), but I wonder if there is some better resource that I don't know of.</p>
