Userscript for analysing variations from Chessable on lichess

Hi! I made this for myself, and thought I'd share it with the community in case anybody else would like it. This is a very simple userscript that add a button to the Chessable variation pages. Clicking this button will open a Lichess analysis board with the current FEN of the variation you're looking at.

How to use: Install a userscript extension like GreaseMonkey (Firefox) or TamperMonkey (Chrome). Copy and paste the code into a new userscript (remember to save!), and open a variation on Chessable. You should now see a new button next to the "Find position in book" button.

Disclaimer: I'm not very experienced with userscripts, so I bet I've done something wrong, but it seems to be working for me.

I've been using Chessable a lot lately and their analysis board is quite lacking. Thanks a lot for the extension :)
@steili Hi, this is to let you know that I made an echo link to this thread in our CSS, JS team forum (we try to act like a TOC, among other things, in the lichess forum, also a workshop, maybe you find other discussions there interesting).

lichess.org/forum/team-css-javascript-coding-on-lichess/existing-user-styles-or-user-scripts-for-lichess#7

This is not a competition with the other forum team named Userscripts. If you would like me to ad also a link in that thread to the link that links here, this would be in the spirit of the initial web, hypertext. a TOC does not have to be a flat table or a tree. I might do it anyway. So i let you know, about this web of links....
No worries @dboing - do whatever you want with it and share it however you like :-)
