Component Details

OctoPrint is a web-based interface for controlling 3D printers. It provides a user-friendly way to manage and monitor the printing process, manage files, configure settings, and extend functionality through plugins. The core server orchestrates the interaction between various components, including printer communication, file management, plugin management, settings, user access control, and the web interface.

Core Server

The central component responsible for managing the OctoPrint instance. It initializes and coordinates various sub-systems, including the web server, plugin manager, settings, and printer communication. It handles the main application loop and orchestrates the interaction between different components. It acts as the central coordinator, initializing and managing all other components.
