No, it has zero functionality, he just use the SFML library to load the images and created a wrapper to comunicate with SF7, that's all

Also if you download the sources, you will see that he actually used the SFML for all the 16 projects, like Tetris, Snake, Minesweeper, Mahjong, etc... All are pretty good

I have to say that can be a good start if you are interested in creating a chess GUI
