Software to create FEN notation? I am new to FEN notation. I understand its importance for describing position of pieces on board. I also understand FEN notations after reading about it in Wikipedia. However, it is a time taking procedure to write it down manually. I am looking for a software or web site, which allows me to place the pieces on the board, and then create FEN notation automatically.

I personally use this site for that.

It is free, and it is an online tool.



REMARKS:

If you wish to put that FEN in our diagram you paste that code like this:


Press space bar 4 times;
Type square brackets ( [] );
Type fen "" inside the brackets ( [fen ""] );
Paste your code inside the "" ( [fen "Your FEN goes here"] );


If you decide to input variations you need to do this:


Press enter twice;
Press space bar 4 times;
Input moves;


Here is an example:
