Leds and buttons

LEDS

With this version it is possible to control some type of leds strips directly from within Sandypi.
The feature is quite basic: can select a color and the brightness.
In the future will add also some animations and more options.
Follow the dedicated readme file for more info.

HW buttons

Added the possibility to control the device with some hardware buttons hooked up to the pi.
At the moment only a small set of functionalities is available. More will be added in the future for sure.

Introducing new frontend

This release introduces a new frontend built on top of React, Redux and Bootstrap4.
Furthermore, some files have been reorganized.
The release is still an alpha because it is not fully tested (I'm expecting a lot of bugs) and there are a lot of todos/improvements to deal with.

Feeder fixes

This release fixes small problems with the gcode feeder and the drawings should be more stable

Minor fixes

This release brings only minor fixes, no additional functionalities

First release

This version is just a demo to show the project idea. It is not very reliable and there are just basic functions.
