    Configurations for Marlin Firmware

  • Official MarlinFirmware. From my understanding this isn't compatible with Ender 6's LCD screen and requires the motherboard to be flashed with special tools? https://github.com/MarlinFirmware/Configurations/tree/import-2.0.x/config/examples/Creality/Ender-6

  • Marlin

    Optimized firmware for RepRap 3D printers based on the Arduino platform. (by ginge)

  • Ginge Marlin fork. Looks like it's out of date and has a number of known bugs: https://github.com/ginge/Marlin/tree/CrealityDwin_2.0

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • Marlin

    Optimized firmware for RepRap 3D printers based on the Arduino platform. (by InsanityAutomation)

  • InsanityAutomation Marlin fork. It sounds like this supports the stock LCD screen: https://github.com/InsanityAutomation/Marlin/tree/CrealityDwin_2.0

  • Marlin_DGUS_Resources

    Resources for the LCD.

  • You're right, the one linked in the README is definitely not the prettiest one and it's not actively maintained (https://github.com/coldtobi/Marlin_DGUS_Resources)
