If I don't use Windows or Mac and only use Linux, will I run into a lot of compatibility issues?
DerpCAM is what I'm currently using. Disclaimer: a good friend of mine is the lead developer and I've been heavily involved in the testing and feedback process. It's in the relatively early stages of development but it's all I use for 2.5d work. https://github.com/kfoltman/DerpCAM I made a few YouTube videos about it. Eg: https://youtu.be/eU6pck5KVbg More functionality is on the way. Take a look at some of the other GitHub branches to see what's coming.
- A friend and i have been working on 2.5D CAM software as a hobby project. The primary motivation is to fill a gap in our own tool chain but it's at the stage it's quite useful so thought i'd share.

Help
I believe the Tool Change command is supported by: gSender or cncjs.

Can I connect my laptop to my desktop CNC with a bluetooth usb dongle?
Get a raspberry pi, https://www.raspberrypi.org/, throw UGS https://winder.github.io/ugs_website/ or cnc.js https://cnc.js.org/ on it.

I use https://cnc.js.org/ to send g-code to the machine, this uses web page interface to set up the machine.

Running CNCJS on raspberry pi - other computers don't see the job

Must have Self-Hosted Developer Tools
CNCjs - For CNC, same as above but for my CNC router, though I would never trust my CNC to run when I'm not physically close by ha ha so this hasn't been exposed to my OpenZiti network.

how to control your laser engraver with a raspberry pi?
I think cncjs is what you're looking for: https://cnc.js.org/

Laser engraver continually alarming!
Can you try with a different gcode sender software (cncjs), to see if you can Reset (red button) and Unlock (orange button)?

ortur Laser Master Pro 2 SF not burning
6 - Alternative, Save the gcode and use a g-code sender (example: cncjs). Notice: a g-code sender needs to know where is the 0,0 position/the start position, so in LightBurn select the start position "Current Position" and select the appropriate Job Origin. Save the gcode. On cncjs, move the laser to the "Job Origin" and zero both X and Y (the icon after the + on the Work Position). Click the blue Upload G-Code button, select your file and press the Play button to start the job.
