    Universal G-Code Sender

    Universal G-Code Sender

    A cross-platform G-Code sender for GRBL, Smoothieware, etc.

    A full-featured gcode platform used for interfacing with advanced CNC controllers like GRBL , TinyG, g2core and Smoothieware. Universal Gcode Sender is a self-contained Java application that includes all external dependencies and can be used on most computers running Windows, MacOSX or Linux. With older versions of GRBL UGS is pretty reliable when it comes to jogging, but there are limitations. With GRBL 1.1 this is no longer the case when using the new JOG MODE syntax. This first-class jog mode guarantees the GCODE state will be unaltered and also allows you to stop a jog while it is in progress. UGS uses this new syntax automatically when it detects a version of GRBL which supports it.

    PHPMailer

    PHPMailer

    The classic email sending library for PHP

    PHPMailer – A full-featured email creation and transfer class for PHP. Support for UTF-8 content and 8bit, base64, binary, and quoted-printable encodings. SMTP authentication with LOGIN, PLAIN, CRAM-MD5, and XOAUTH2 mechanisms over SMTPS and SMTP+STARTTLS transports. Validates email addresses automatically. Many PHP developers need to send email from their code. The only PHP function that supports this directly is mail(). However, it does not provide any assistance for making use of popular features such as encryption, authentication, HTML messages, and attachments. Formatting email correctly is surprisingly difficult. There are myriad overlapping (and conflicting) standards, requiring tight adherence to horribly complicated formatting and encoding rules – the vast majority of code that you'll find online that uses the mail() function directly is just plain wrong, if not unsafe!

    WiFiManager

    WiFiManager

    WiFi Connection manager with web captive portal

    Espressif ESPx WiFi Connection manager with fallback web configuration portal. The configuration portal is of the captive variety, so on various devices it will present the configuration dialogue as soon as you connect to the created access point. When your ESP starts up, it sets it up in Station mode and tries to connect to a previously saved Access Point. If this is unsuccessful (or no previous network saved) it moves the ESP into Access Point mode and spins up a DNS and WebServer (default ip 192.168.4.1). Using any wifi enabled device with a browser (computer, phone, tablet) connect to the newly created Access Point. Because of the Captive Portal and the DNS server you will either get a 'Join to network' type of popup or get any domain you try to access redirected to the configuration portal. ESP will try to connect. If successful, it relinquishes control back to your app. If not, reconnect to AP and reconfigure.
