Hi
I Wonder if the ESP32 with its 2RT kernals and one Communication Kernal that interact on a TASK Base
woudt not be a good base for a wifi controlled CNC System as of Android serial comunication like this eggbots do
sending up to 16Bufferd g-code lines 3D printer and giving ACK back for next 16 lines so 32 lines are on the ESP32 in the COM task
while 1RT kontrolls the feedback like Servo Period
and one does the Basicstuff on BaseTread

Did somone considder the same and alredy started on this

I wouldn't be surprised to find that GRBL will already run on the ESP32.

You can take Arduino code straight to a Teensy (ARM32 M4)

Almost anything that runs on arduino will run on ESP32, but it will not use the full potential of it.
I wonder why no one bothered to use it properly, they have pushed arduino to the limits as far as cnc goes with the Marlin firmware, so i imagine a lot more could be done with ESP32.
The only one pushing it, as far as i could find, is Bitluny's lab. He does some nice projects, for sure, but not cnc.

compared to arduino they are much more powerful both in speed and in memory.
days ago I played with esp32 cam and it works well for what it is.
I found this: github.com/bdring/Grbl_Esp32
