Firmware	Supported	Raster Performance	CNC Support	Pull Requests Accepted
Grbl > v1.1f (ATmega328)	Yes	Good	Great	Yes - improvements
Grbl-Mega (ATmega2560)	Yes	Good	Great	Yes - improvements
Grbl-LPC (LPC176x)	Yes	Great	Great	Yes - improvements
Grbl_ESP32 (ESP32)	Yes	Great	Great	Yes - improvements
Smoothieware	Yes *	Okayish	Okayish	Yes - improvements

Repetier	Yes	Unknown	No	Yes - improvements
RepRapFirmware	Yes	Unknown	Yes	Yes - improvements

• If fast raster engraving is important for you, we recommend replacing Smoothieware with grbl-LPC (https://github.com/cprezzi/grbl-LPC) which also runs on the LPC1769 based boards and performs much faster for laser raster applications.

Wishlist

If you want to contribute, below are long standing community-requested enhancements, that a) we don't have time to code or b) need extra skills

• GCODE Optimiser - to cut down on G0 moves (something like http://parano.github.io/GeneticAlgorithm-TSP/)
• Implement "Raster > TSP-Vector" operation
• More Controllers! Help us implement more firmwares (improve TinyG add Marlin/Repetier, etc)
• WebGL Transformation Filters to use Webcam to setup stock
• Automate Electron Builds for all platforms
