The most major modification is C rewrite, however the structure has been changed, and some of the more mathematical functions of the library have been optimized.

The main advantages are the speed and portability. Pathfinder will run on either Java or C++ robots, and also has the added support for Swerve Drive. As for integrating it into you robot code, it should be a fairly similar experience to TrajectoryLib
