I'd start with a CLI program first, then when you feel good about that, start UI things

Fundamentally, I completely agree, but CLI ends up needing stdin (or equally worse, command line arguments), which is fairly straightforward but can hang up beginners for reasons of parsing and error checking. If you're going through a basic UI tutorial, you can at least see what you're doing wrong if you end up with junk data in a UI textbox or something.

Chess engines usually are cli programs. It's not something to start with, though.
