Re: Replacing graduating seniors

In 2014 I knew nothing about programming a robot. I had a lot of experience programming but not much related to robotics. I had experience in C++, so I choose that, and I learned to program the robot on my own using the wpilib documentation. It's not difficult to create programs to control most aspects of the robot. It only gets difficult once you start using encoders and sensors, and vision. Since the control system is not changing, just have them reprogram this year's robot. If you have multiple programmers, it's not difficult to have them work together. My team(not robotics) uses our own git server that we host, but I think that FRC teams can get a free github repo if they want it.
