+Structure Documentation:
+
+Subsystem
+ + Default Commands
+    - Continuously executing until Interrupt
+ + Relation To Robot
+    - Subsystems can be compared to mechanisms that use the same overall resources
+    - realize that two actions cannot occur at the same time, that require the same subsystem
+ + Dependencies
+    - Dependencies are created by the requires(Subsystem subsystem) 
+    - These prevent two different commands from utilizing the same resources on the robot
+
+Commands
+ + Interrupts 
+    - Called to stop a command from running
+    - Specifically when robot is disabled or a dependency overlaps
+ + Connection With Buttons
+    - Commands can be easily mapped to buttons through the OI class
+
+Input Class
+ + Input Devices
+    - Input devices are mapped through joystick and button objects
+ + Button Actions
+    - Commands can be mapped to buttons or triggers in the OI class 
+
+Robot Map
+ + Ports
+    - This class centralizes port numbers and connection numbers for robot-wide use
+
+Command Groups
+ + About
+    - Command Groups are used for command sequencing and parallelizazation 
+    - Basically running things in a specific order or at the same time
+    - think about automated actions
+ + Sequential
+    - TODO(testing)
+ + Parallel
