HELP me code a 8x8 checkerboard

Question

My project is the following and I am unsure how to start & what to use :
For my solitary checkers/draughts practice, my goal is to program a board 64-squared board, numbered 1 to 32 and ready to use, i.e. to play on (zero engine computation involved).
The only function would be some "go back/forth" option, to navigate through moves.
In short, my goal is simply to make a simple, practical tool, simulating the good ol' wooden checkerboard , but I wonder how to plan my code / where to start, etc.
Thanks!
