Made sure the stock firmware printed the example gcode that came on the SD card and then immediately embarked on my journey to get klipper running on this guy.

I didn't finish until the wee hours this morning so I've yet to really give it a go but all the essentials are operational.

Here's the GitHub link to the config I created: https://github.com/0xD34D/ender3-v3-se-klipper-config

You should try to install octoprint on a raspberry pi. It's the easiest way to get a web gui if you don't want to mess with the firmware or mainboard

Klipper is sooo much better than Octoprint. It replaced the whole software not just the web interface part. Klipper is absolutely amazing. Now for work, it’s an open source software with community support. So done corporate don’t like not having a company to blame if something goes wrong.

Klipper isn't a web interface. Octoprint works with Klipper as a web interface. They're different software for different things.

Yeah, get mainsailOS with klipper

Octoprint has tons of great plugins and features that mainsail/fluidd have no equivalent for, and can be used to control klipper printers too.
