## Historique du projet et usages

hexgui is a Java GUI for the board game Hex, packaged as the graphical side of the Benzene/Hex tooling world and built around running Hex games and engines from a desktop interface.

### Historique du projet

The SourceForge tree identifies the project as benzene/hexgui, marks it beta, and credits Broderick Arneson and Markus Enzenberger. The README is intentionally terse: build with ant and run bin/hexgui.

The file history visible on SourceForge places key files in the 2010-2014 range, including the README dated 2010-02-26 and source-tree updates through 2014.

### Historique d'adoption

The batch metadata lists Homebrew and Nix packaging. That is narrow adoption, but it is meaningful for a niche board-game tool because it keeps an otherwise SourceForge-era Java utility installable from modern package managers.

### Modes d'utilisation

hexgui is used as a GUI for playing or analyzing Hex games, commonly in relation to engines that speak Hex or Go Text Protocol-style command protocols.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

Its package-nerd interest is mostly archival and interoperability-oriented: it packages a small Java GUI from the computer-Hex ecosystem, preserving access to a tool associated with Benzene/MoHex-style engine workflows.

### Chronologie

- 2010: README and TODO files appear in the SourceForge tree.
- 2011: Wrapper, Windows launcher, license, and build-file updates appear in the SourceForge tree.
- 2014: Source updates include adding 15x15 to the list of board sizes.
- 2016: A GitHub mirror of benzene/hexgui is created under apetresc/hexgui.

### Related projects

- Related projects include Benzene, MoHex, Wolve, and other Hex engines or research tools that can be driven from a GUI.

### Sources
