Yes, MachineKit is great if you want to run CNC on a very
small, cheap set of boards.
But, the MachineKit software project is almost moribund,
there has been VERY little
further development. I think that is sad, they had some
VERY exciting ideas, but some of them might have been hard
to implement.
LinuxCNC is still being very actively developed, with daily
commits to the repository.
My main CNC machine is a Bridgeport, so having extremely
compact control hardware is not so
important.
