Thanks for the link. That looks like it will be handy. I have been thinking about starting a project to port the wpilib to JavaScript. As silly as that sounds, there are so many sources to learn JavaScript from and many of our students already know enough to get by if it was an option. Do you believe anyone would use it and what were your biggest challenges when porting it to Python?
