Hi, this is Yathish. 
I'm trying to run a small Stepper Motor 42SHDC3025-24B using A4988 driver (just one axis). I'm finding it hard to set this up. I'm using raspberry pi 4 with  as my os. 
I'm finding it hard to go further. Whichever resources I refer online is of no use. 
Can anyone please help me out with the steps to proceed?

Linuxcnc can control any kind of driver that accepts step & direction inputs.

Start with the stepconf wizard and pretend that you have a parallel port.

Then you will need to edit the HAL file, removing everything that says "parport" and replacing it with a Pi GPIO pin instead.

Use this driver: linuxcnc.org/docs/stable/html/drivers/hal_gpio.html
