Sub page detailing the use of ethercat in the Aether project and what the benefits are.

Some work needs to be done on how Aether uses it as it is wholly taken from developer comments from the server and might not be perfectly accurate on the implementation or technical aspects.

I think the benefits of ethercat over USB/CAN/UART is important as these are the current state of 3D printers and other motion control systems. My technical knowledge here was limited so I had to review comments and other online sources. This needs to be reviewed by someone skilled in the art.

Added two FAQ questions.

@YanceyA YanceyA changed the base branch from main to docs/ethercat-subpage October 20, 2025 06:46

Created a new branch from origin main to merge this fork PR into.

To Do before ready for review:

  • Review content and update with FUMADOCS formatting as appropriate.
  • Change lists to paragraphs to help with readability.

Updated the EtherCAT list to paragraphs, inc accordion elements for FAQs.
