Wi-Fi Egg Bot
Initially based on the M5stack core platform (ESP32), this project aims to provide a refresh to the original Egg Bot giving it the ability to load/slice/save/print files without the use of a PC.

Demo
Development work
Remaining things for a first release
- WiFi setup - start firmware (or switch if unable to connect to a network) in AP mode. Allow changing the mode/wi-fi settings from the web client
- M5 UI - update M5 code to include UI to: start/pause/stop print, view progress and Wi-Fi settings (AP settings and/or IP in STA mode)
- OTA - easier firmware update (removing dependencies for PlatformIO or other tools after the first flash)
Lower priority
- Move image processing in web worker
- Make project compatible with generic ESP32 boards

Building
Web client (angular based)

I personally use Visual Studio Code with the PlatformIO IDE extension.
platformio run - build code
platformio run --target upload - upload code
platformio run --target uploadfs - upload web client files
