Seeking advice for rookie programming

Hello! I'm a member of the newly created FRC Team 6420, and am looking for advice on programming. I've been the main programmer for FTC for the past two years, using Android Studio. You can view my work for this year here.

I'm familiar with Java & IntelliJ, but our main mentor is recommending we use C++ because teams in the area use it and we will be able to get help. I have some limited experience with C++, and no experience with eclipse. I'm aware the Labview exists, but I really don't like any sort of visual programming. It seems exceedingly clunky to me.

So. What would you recommend? Are there online tutorials for FRC programming? How is it similar / different to FTC programming? Anything else you'd like to add?

Thanks!
