Project Setup

We will use IntelliJ as our main IDE instead of VS code

Install the FRC Update Suite

Install using the WPILib Installer (version 2019.2.1). It will install Java 11 and setup a local maven repository. Uncheck C++ toolchain and Gradle because we don't need them.

Install the CTRE libraries on this page. Use version 5.13.0

Install the Navx library from here (open the latest build link)

Clone the repo with Git, into ~/IdeaProjects. (it is the default folder in IntelliJ) This will ensure the project can always be found on all computers

We are going to use the installed JDK, JDK 11.0.1, found in C:\Users\Public\frc2019\jdk

Open the project and Import With Gradle. Select auto-import, "Use gradle wrapper", and select the Gradle JVM to be the JDK said above

Wait for gradle to refresh

In File -> Project Structure make sure project JDK and syntax version is the correct one (11.0.1)

Build using Gradle -> build -> build

Deploy using Gradle -> embeddedTools -> deploy
