WPILib Installation ====================================== WPILib is the FOSS solution for acting as the controls software for FRC that ROBOTZ Garage will use. Alternatives include NI's LabView, and RobotPy. Written in C++, with interfaces for Java, it acts as a software controller deployed to the RoboRIO to interface with motors, sensors, network tables, coprocessors, etc. The RoboRIO uses a minimal operating system to accept robot code. At a top level, WPILib will tell the robot what to do. WPILib includes definitions for the majority of FRC-standard components, in addition to the structure needed to help integrate third-party solutions. Versions of WPILib use the `YYYY.MM.` structure. Make sure that the version of WPILib you install is the year you plan to support. In pre-season, use the latest version. It is recommended that you install WPILib on your personal computer in order to contribute from home. We will discuss robots-at-home later in Badge 1. https://docs.wpilib.org/en/stable/docs/zero-to-robot/step-2/wpilib-setup.html We will follow the WPILib documentation for additional context to lessons learned. Make sure you are capable of navigating the WPILib documentation.
