Put some custom commad (by buttons) on Maslow 4 interface (FluidCNC)

Hello,

one question: is it possible to send commands (maybe throw some button on interface) to a Arduino the must do some things? One i control a led strip that light Maslow 4 working area, other are to come.

It’s 100% possible. I’m in support of this kind of thing as long as it doesn’t clutter up the interface for everyone.

Long term (once things have stabilized a bit) I think that we are going to see a lot of different index.html options to offer different user interfaces with more options

For the most part the UI just sends fluidnc commands (grbl + user commands) to the maslow via a command endpoint (for example “$EXT” to extend all). If you have custom hardware, you would probably have to add a new “UserCommand” to the firmware side (FluidNC repository), and a button or whatever to the UI side (ESP32-UI repository).

Ok, I’ll try to review the firmware and UI side to achieve my goal. Thanks
