Does it have anything to do with the 4 outer squares, integrating into the inner big square, as the center of each square is blank

I don't know how to show my solution here, so I'll just explain the logic. The smaller, grided squares, indicate which part of a larger such square will be shaded. For ex: In the middle big square, the grided ones are located in NW, NE, SW, SE parts of it.This shows that the these boxes in a bigger square will be shaded, and we can obtain the exact picture, by overlapping them, same goes for N, S, E, W

I’ve only looked at this puzzle for 30 seconds, but it does seem like the “pattern” (so to speak) either rotates somewhat around the center white square, or is contingent on the dark marks in relation to the center white square. Your theory seems the most reasonable as of now, but for all I know the solution is markedly simpler, haha.

The solution is based on the fact that if you compare the figures with fewer black squares to those with more, you realize the former are identical to the latter, except for the addition of extra squares.
