2.1 - WPILib

WPILib is a library that supplies a lot of robot-focused features. It is organized in such a way that its users have to learn a new style of programming - that is, programmers will have to structure their code differently than they may be used to.

In this section, we’re going to learn about a common paradigms that have emerged in FRC: Command-based programming. There are alternatives to command-based programming in FRC, however they are not what team 3414 encourages (as of right now) and therefore will not be covered.

Exception

There are cases in this book where other architectural styles in FRC will be discussed, but simply because the best solutions often involve a blend of paradigms. Those will not be in this section, and instead will be in the section for advanced FRC programming.
