Recently I found on GitHub - PandaPi (https://github.com/markniu/PandaPi) project. A Raspberry Pi HAT board that turns a Raspberry Pi as a motherboard for 3D printer.

Kind of interesting, because it seems to use a Marlin version for Linux and directly generate step motor pulses and control signals by using WiringPi library.

Wondered if someone tested this board ?

I found it interesting enough to order one this past weekend. V2 is now online with 6 drivers, not the 4 as pictured.

Looking forward to seeing what it can do!

I ordered mine from his Tindie store--yet to arrive (ordered Saturday, shipped Sunday from China so..):

In the facebook group he's announced a dedicated website to buy from is just getting off the ground:

BTW, not advertising for the dude, nor am I affiliated. But it's definitely a project that interests me and I think is worth a shot.
V2.5 should be coming shortly, with more GPIO pins available.
