Doesn't have to be that way. We have a mentor who has experience in Java/Node.js and we received a tablet donation from a sponsor, so it made the decision easy for us. As long as you troubleshoot the interactions between all points in the system and have the required equipment, you can use whatever platform you want. I used Excel macros from 2007-2012 for scouting systems, because that's what I knew.
