== WPILib ==
WPILib is developed by volunteers at Worcester Polytechnic Institute and is a library of classes that help make FRC programming eaiser.

* WPILib provides [https://wpilib.screenstepslive.com/s/currentCS/m/java/l/599697-choosing-a-base-class 4 frameworks] for building robot programs.  In GettingStarted, we built our first programs using the !TimedRobot (previously had been !IterativeRobot) framework .  For competition, 2537 uses the command based robot framework.
