About DassBridge
Dassbridge is an effort to automate the entire contract bridge tournaments.
Hello, I am Chanchal Dass. At the age of sixteen, I have started playing contract bridge. I have conceptualized and developed the dassbridge app to automate the entire tournament. It is not for playing online tournaments. The main purpose of this app is to conduct offline tournaments that can be played using smartphones, laptops, and tablets. It can be used tournaments between 1 to 50 pairs of players. It can be used for teaching contract bridge. There is provision for chatting with the player where one can send messages for demonstration purposes. It can be used for playing rubber bridge.
