The SimpleRobotTemplateProject does not include any code to read sensors, drive wheels, etc. It's only a template for a project, not an example. It will do nothing.

To make this do something, you will need to create your own motor objects and joystick objects. There's a method called operatorControl() in the code included within the SimpleRobotTemplateProject; this will be called when the robot enters teleoperated mode. Put your code there.

Take a look inside the sample projects or look at the documentation for WPILib to see how this works.
