ngreen, let me know if you run into any glitches with the package, either here or in the issues section of the github repository. I was only able to test it on a couple different computers.

I considered both R and Python with the Pandas package for developing this package, and I initially played around with the FIRST API in both languages. I think Python is better as a general purpose scripting language and I found the documentation for Python to be much easier to understand than R's documentation. But for some random reason, early on, I made more progress in R than in Python.

I'm experimenting with a Shiney app as well. I think Shiney could work well for building an application to present our scouting data to the drive crew -- I'm going to see if our scouting group is interested in pursuing that project. If we come up with any interesting R data visualization techniques we'll post them on the github webpages for the firstapiR package.
