The board consists of individual squares that are different colors on each side and connect together with either standard OpenLock connectors or magnetic clips (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3612827).

The black and white tiles were printed with a filament swap halfway through to create the dual-color look. Classic checker pattern:
The board is both sturdy and easy to re-configure.
The board can be held together with standard openlock clips for a rigid structure or with magnetic clips. Dual ball-magnet clips holding the magnetic grid board together (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3612827):
While the debate between grid boards and hex boards has raged on since the beginning of gaming, you can now get the best of both worlds by combining the magnetic hex board with the magnetic grid board (https://www.singularity.games/p/magnetic-hex-board.html):
