+Welcome to the Klipper documentation. There are two parts to Klipper -
+code that runs on a micro-controller and code that runs on a "host"
+machine. The host code is intended to run on a low-cost
+general-purpose machine such as a Raspberry Pi, while the
+micro-controller code is intended to run on commodity micro-controller
+chips. Read [features](Features.md) for reasons to use Klipper. See
