Questions tagged [skynet3d]

Use this tag for questions about a specific custom firmware for the low-cost series of Anet printers to support the special displays they use.

Skynet3D is an obsolete fork of Marlin Firmware that was created because the displays of the Anet printers have a different layout in terms of pin assignment (also uses analog buttons).
