Exclamation FRCsoft.com: Dedicated to FIRST Community Programmers

Greetings FIRST Community,

Our team has spent the summer months working on a website dedicated to archiving and sharing source code for other FIRST teams. We wanted to provide a means for you to locate all the files necessary to download and get your 2001-2003, 2004, or 2005 robot controllers up and running quickly. With permission from Innovation First and the help of other teams, we hope to provide a place that you can learn from example by downloading source code. When you submit a file to our repository, you OWN the file and can come back to update it or delete it from our site anytime. You have full control of the file that is associated with your user name. For a short while, we will moderate all files uploaded to make sure they do not breech commercial copyright, such as MPLAB software etc…please do not upload this type of commercial software.

And now the intro to FRCsoft.com....

http://www.frcsoft.com/

Welcome the FIRST Software Repository!

The purpose of this website is to provide a common place on the internet where FIRST robotic programmers can come and share or learn from example code uploaded and hosted on our web server.

This website is a donation to all the teams in the FIRST community. We hope that you can use this web space to store and share code with other teams that can learn C programming by downloading your sample code. By uploading code, you essentially become a mentor to not only your team, but ALL the teams in the FIRST community.

By registering a user name, you can submit code to our repository by using the Add a File function located on the top of the page. Your username is associated with the file you submit. You can come back anytime to edit the file(s) you uploaded.

A forum board is provided to ask questions if needed, and post comments about files that have been submitted. We see this forum space mainly becoming a place to share comments about the source code submitted.

You will find some corporate files on our server. Most of these files are linked rather than hosted on our web server. We have obtained permission to link certain files on other web servers, such as those found on Innovation First’s website.

The web space provided has about 30 GB dedicated to this web site, running on a quad Zeon Intel 3.0 GHz CPUs. Our operating system is Red Hat 9.0 Enterprise Edition. Our web server is located in a data center buried in Virginia which should give you about an OC1 connection.

On behalf of our team and web design students, please accept this website as our donation to the FIRST community. We hope that you will contribute to the website and make it a nice place to learn about programming by downloading source code written by other teams.
