A 3D Printing Hub
3D Printer Management without the Hassle
This is a 3D printer management system we got to work on for Autodesk. It's inspirations include OctoPrint, Repetier Host, and PrintRun. This was designed and developedto solve a few problems with the current open source software available to manage prints.

Under the Hood
This project is built on KOA, has postgreSQL for persistent data storage, and socket for real time updates.
Design
A UI for multi-printer management
The goal of this project was to have a clean UI that would answer some classic issues with navigating a startup's org chart:
- A Simplified UI: We simplified the available options/features towards the general user. However, if you want to get creative, we added a terminal to enter gcode.
- Built to Scale:We wanted to build it to scale so that you can manage several printers and several jobs. No other open source 3D printing management software is equipped to do that right now. Our goal is to make this power 3D printers and jobs from anywhere, and to continue to tweak the UI to meet the average 3D printing user'sneeds.
