How to create a responsive checkerboard background in CSS?

问题

I want to have a resposive checkerboard background that should look like the background in a color selector:

What I tried:

.chess {
  background-image: 
    linear-gradient(90deg, #999 30px, white 30px), 
    linear-gradient(90deg, white 30px, #999 30px), 
    linear-gradient(90deg, #999 30px, white 30px), 
    linear-gradient(90deg, white 30px, #999 30px), 
    linear-gradient(90deg, #999 30px, white 30px), 
    linear-gradient(90deg, white 30px, #999 30px), 
    linear-gradient(90deg, #999 30px, white 30px);
  background-position: 0 0, 0 30px, 0 60px, 0 90px, 0 120px;
  background-repeat: repeat-x;
  background-size: 60px 30px;
  height: 150px;
  margin: 15px auto;
  width: 30%;
}


.fas {
  text-align: center;
  font-size: 10em
}

<div>
  <div class="btn btn-outline-secondary chess">
  <i class="fas fa-car"></i>
  </div>
<div>

Problems:

• My result is not resposive. (I have fixed pixel sizes)
• I would need a lot of code if I have a larger background or smaller elements.
• I did not achieve to center the pattern or use background-repeat: round

If it is possible I don't want any cut off elements in the checkerboard background.

Not like this (cut off on the right and bottom):

Here is an idea that rely on conic-gradient but supported only on Chrome actually:

.chess {
  background:
    conic-gradient(#fff 0deg ,#fff 90deg,
                   grey 90deg,grey 180deg,
                   #fff 180deg,#fff 270deg,
                   grey 270deg,grey 360deg) 0 0/25% 25%;
  margin: 15px;
  padding:10px;
}

<link href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/font-awesome/5.7.2/css/all.min.css" rel="stylesheet"/>

<div class="chess fas fa-7x fa-car"></div>
<div class="chess fas fa-5x fa-car"></div>
<div class="chess fas fa-10x fa-user"></div>
<div class="chess fas fa-3x fa-phone"></div>

You can also consider round of background-repeat if you want to have the same size and no cut off:

.chess {
  background:
    conic-gradient(#fff 0deg ,#fff 90deg,
                   grey 90deg,grey 180deg,
                   #fff 180deg,#fff 270deg,
                   grey 270deg,grey 360deg) 0 0/40px 40px round;
  margin: 15px;
  padding:10px;
}

<div class="chess fas fa-7x fa-car"></div>
<div class="chess fas fa-5x fa-car"></div>
<div class="chess fas fa-10x fa-user"></div>
<div class="chess fas fa-3x fa-phone"></div>

Here is a similar idea using SVG instead of gradient where you will have better support:

.chess {
  background:
    url('data:image/svg+xml;utf8,<svg preserveAspectRatio="none"  viewBox="0 0 10 10" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><rect x="0" y="0" width="5" height="5" fill="grey" /><rect x="5" y="5" width="5" height="5" fill="grey" /><rect x="5" y="0" width="5" height="5" fill="white" /><rect x="0" y="5" width="5" height="5" fill="white" /></svg>') 0 0/25% 25%;
  margin: 15px;
  padding:10px;
}

<link href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/font-awesome/5.7.2/css/all.min.css" rel="stylesheet"/>

<div class="chess fas fa-7x fa-car"></div>
<div class="chess fas fa-5x fa-car"></div>
<div class="chess fas fa-10x fa-user"></div>
<div class="chess fas fa-3x fa-phone"></div>

And with a fixed size:

.chess {
  background:
    url('data:image/svg+xml;utf8,<svg preserveAspectRatio="none"  viewBox="0 0 10 10" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><rect x="0" y="0" width="5" height="5" fill="grey" /><rect x="5" y="5" width="5" height="5" fill="grey" /><rect x="5" y="0" width="5" height="5" fill="white" /><rect x="0" y="5" width="5" height="5" fill="white" /></svg>') 0 0/40px 40px round;
  margin: 15px;
  padding:10px;
}

<link href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/font-awesome/5.7.2/css/all.min.css" rel="stylesheet"/>

<div class="chess fas fa-7x fa-car"></div>
<div class="chess fas fa-5x fa-car"></div>
<div class="chess fas fa-10x fa-user"></div>
<div class="chess fas fa-3x fa-phone"></div>

Use this:

.chess {
  background-image:
    linear-gradient(45deg, #ccc 25%, transparent 25%),
    linear-gradient(-45deg, #ccc 25%, transparent 25%),
    linear-gradient(45deg, transparent 75%, #ccc 75%),
    linear-gradient(-45deg, transparent 75%, #ccc 75%);
  background-size: 60px 60px;
  background-position: 0 0, 0 29px, 29px -29px, -29px 0px;
}
.btn {}

.fas {
  color: black;
  text-align: center;
  font-size: 10em;
}


.fas.f5em {
  font-size: 5em;
}

.fas.f35em {
  font-size: 35em;
}

<div>
  <div class="btn btn-outline-secondary chess">
  <i class="fas fa-car"></i>
  </div>
<div>

<div>
  <div class="btn btn-outline-secondary chess">
  <i class="fas fa-car f5em"></i>
  </div>
<div>

<div>
  <div class="btn btn-outline-secondary chess">
  <i class="fas fa-car f35em"></i>
  </div>
<div>

OR you can use pattern image like:
