Printer firmware written in D for a 32bit microcontroller.
I've actually started to implement a GCode processor in D a
while ago, because I was unsatisfied with the open source
firmwares that exist. It's more tailored towards CNC routers,
but since those are pretty similar that shouldn't be a big
problem. The bad news is that I don't have time to work on it
anymore and it was still at a relatively early stage.
D for programming + Vibe for web/mobile interface + Mir for math
would be a win for a 3d printer firmware. Using templates and
component programming should fit perfectly a generic-composable
firmware for printers. (check delta vs cartesian vs corexy +
different stepper drivers + different motors + different boards +
...)
