The FIRST Alliance 2.0

The Best FRC Stats Site Just Got Better!

Well it’s finally here - the first major update for The FIRST Alliance (yeah that’s right, get excited!). TFA has gotten even simpler, cleaner, and faster to use! We’ve been working on this for quite some time, and besides a major facelift here’s the rundown of some other sick features TFA now has.
1. Accounts – you can now create a TFA account and follow specific teams and events! *
2. User Dashboard – Login and you’ll be greeted to an interactive dashboard that displays all the events and teams you follow
3. API Documentation – Interactive API documentation for developers
4. Social Media integration - Like, Tweet, or “Plus”? your favorite teams or events on Google+
5. We’ve gone SOCIAL! – Find us on Facebook, Twitter, and Google+
6. Information Page Redesign – Might be boring but it’s important still. All our informational pages have been redesigned to improve readability.
7. New Digs! - Yeah I already mentioned this, but we’re super proud about how the site looks. 
What’s Next?
We’re never satisfied with status quo, and even though we just pushed the most rad update any FRC stats portal has ever seen, we’re already thinking about how to make it better. Let me share a few ideas with you all.
1. User controls – change password, username, etc.
2. More radness – design and usability is important to us and we’re going to make the site even more bodacious than it already is
3. Webcast portal – yeah we know the other guys have it, but c’mon you all deserve better
Big shoutout to the community who’s been absolutely amazing since we launched a little less than a year ago! You guys are why we do this and we love the fact that you’ve been so involved with the project. YOU GUYS ROCK!

* The user features are very beta and we expect bugs to be encountered before we work out all the kinks/implement new features. So please be patient and tell us about any problems you have.
