Made sure the stock firmware printed the example gcode that came on the SD card and then immediately embarked on my journey to get klipper running on this guy.

I didn't finish until the wee hours this morning so I've yet to really give it a go but all the essentials are operational.

Here's the GitHub link to the config I created: https://github.com/0xD34D/ender3-v3-se-klipper-config

another thing to note... klipper firmware takes the heavy processing typically handled by the printer control board, and offloads the burden onto the computer or device you have hooked up to the printer, processing and feeding the gcode one line at a time. so whatever device you are using needs to be up to the specs. I'm using an rpi 3b+ and have no issues.
