Pros help needed

So, my school is transitioning into PROS for this upcoming season. I’ve found some basic tutorials, but I would like to know how to do PID’s, Motion Profiling, LVGL. I would also like some vocab on pros, because people are always confusing me with words having to do with pros/ c ++ coding.

Your question is very broad. Do you have any specific troubles?

  • PROS has an awesome documentation page with tutorials.
  • OkapiLib, a PROS library that contains a lot of extra functionality such as motion profiling & built-in PID controllers, has its documentation page here. I learned this stuff by reading these guides & API docs, as well as asking for clarification after I’ve done my own searching.
  • Also, the unofficial Discord server is a great place for any other questions you might have.

You’ve given me very good links. I am just looking for a way to basically be taught pros before next season.

@LouisDotA provided some great links. I would advise you to read some of them (if not all), and then try out what you are learning. If you can, download PROS and code. If you have a robot, you can test your code, or PROS will give you errors if the code really wouldn’t work.

Learning is an active process. We learn by doing. Only knowledge that is used sticks in your mind.

As you delve into programming, one thing leads to another, and you learn as you do.
Also, use Google. You can search for some of the vocab, like CLI, IDE, odometry, splines, etc.
