## What it is
OctoDash is a touchscreen-optimized dashboard UI for OctoPrint, built with TypeScript/Angular, that runs on a Raspberry Pi attached to a 3D printer. It provides a modern, simplified interface for controlling prints, managing filament changes, and monitoring printer status directly at the printer.

## Use cases
- display a touchscreen dashboard for my OctoPrint 3D printer
- control my 3D printer without a keyboard using a Raspberry Pi
- monitor print progress on a small screen next to the printer
- manage filament changes from a printer-mounted UI
- replace the OctoPrint web interface with a nicer touchscreen UI
- start and stop prints from a 3.5 to 7 inch display

## When to choose
- you run OctoPrint on a Raspberry Pi with a touchscreen attached to your printer
- you want a beautiful, purpose-built UI instead of the default OctoPrint web interface
- you need offline, at-the-printer control without a separate computer or phone
- you want features like SD card printing and filament change handling in a simple interface

## When to avoid
- you don't use OctoPrint as your printer host software
- you need a UI for a device other than a Debian-based Linux/Raspberry Pi setup
- you want a remote monitoring solution rather than a local touchscreen dashboard
- your screen is not 16:9, 16:10, or 4:3 landscape orientation
