Mainsail – web interface for managing 3D printers

Mainsail is a lightweight and responsive web interface for managing 3D printers running Klipper firmware.

It provides an intuitive browser-based environment for controlling printers, monitoring jobs, editing configuration files, and managing G-code files through the Moonraker API.

This is free and open source software.

Key Features

  • Responsive interface optimized for desktops, tablets, and mobile devices.
  • Manage multiple 3D printers from a single interface.
  • Upload, rename, delete, and organize G-code and configuration files.
  • Edit G-code and configuration files with syntax highlighting.
  • Review previous prints and their completion status.
  • View printer usage and job success and failure statistics.
  • Queue multiple print jobs and add jobs directly from a slicer.
  • Create temperature presets for convenient preheating.
  • Visualize the printer bed using an interactive 3D mesh graph.
  • Inspect prints and follow their progress with a 3D G-code viewer.
  • Monitor prints using multiple webcams.
  • Automatically record print timelapses with moonraker-timelapse.
  • Control relays, TP-Link devices, Tasmota devices, and other power equipment.
  • Organize and manage Klipper macros.
  • Customize the dashboard layout, logos, backgrounds, and CSS.
  • Display additional sensors on temperature graphs.
  • Use the interface in multiple languages.
