Official repository for the Creality3D Ender-3, a fully open-source budget 3D printer. It hosts the printer's source files, including firmware and hardware-related materials, under a GPL-3.0 license.

Use cases

  • download firmware and source files for the Ender-3 3D printer
  • modify or rebuild the Ender-3 printer firmware
  • learn how an open-source 3D printer is designed
  • customize a budget 3D printer for a first-time user
  • contribute improvements to the Ender-3 hardware or firmware

When to choose

  • you own or plan to buy a Creality Ender-3 and want its official open-source files
  • you want to tinker with or fork the printer's firmware and hardware designs
  • you need a GPL-licensed reference for a budget FDM 3D printer

When to avoid

  • you need slicing or 3D modeling software rather than printer source files
  • you want actively developed firmware with frequent updates (last release was 2022)
  • you are looking for a general-purpose 3D printing toolchain rather than one specific printer
