## Quick Information

This is a firmware for reprap single-processor electronics setups.
It also works on the Ultimaker PCB. It supports printing from SD card+Folders and look-ahead trajectory planning.
This firmware is a mashup between [Sprinter](https://github.com/kliment/Sprinter), [grbl](https://github.com/simen/grbl), and many original parts.

## Current Status: Bug Fixing

The Marlin development is currently revived. There's a long list of reported issues and pull requests, which we are working on currently.
We are actively looking for testers. So please try the current development version and report new issues and feedback.
