OctoPrint On Air is a roughly monthly devlog done by me (Gina Häußge). I report what's been going on in the background, what happened, what the current challenges are and what the near future holds, plus talk about whatever else might be interesting in the world of OctoPrint. Patrons on the Patreon campaign and GitHub Sponsors pledging at the $5 perk or above get early access to it and are also invited to regular live Q&A sessions.
