Until now, Game Courier had no support for generating boards with square spaces using CSS. But now it does. The newly supported combination of a Square shape with the CSS rendering method will use CSS Grid to display the board. Note that CSS Grid is completely unrelated to the Custom Grid shape, as I created the Custom Grid shape before CSS Grid was ever a part of CSS. The shape here is Square, not Custom Grid, and it produces square spaces in solid colors.

Like Interactive Diagrams, it will display pieces as background-images. This allows for consistency of size in the borders that show up on spaces to indicate legal moves or past moves, as these borders belong to an image placed on each space, and now they can all be empty images of the same size instead of some being piece images.
