Re: Make the RoboRIO serve HTML like the NI WebDash
You certainly can put an HTTP server on the roborio, but I would recommend putting the HTTP server on your driver station, and communicate with the robot via networktables. Check out pynetworktables2js for a project that lets you easily build your own dashboards using HTML/JS.
