  1. How To Code in VSC

A Tour Through VSC

PreviousVSC- IntroNextCreating a Regular Java Project

Last updated 2 months ago

Welcome to VSC! If you open the app, it should look something like this (aside from the blue arrow)

Now, let's talk about the thing the blue arrow is pointing to. This icon opens up VSC's Command Palette, a list of different commands and stuff that you'll find to be incredibly helpful.

To make code, we first need a project. A project is just a collection of related files that are compiled and run for something.

Creating a WPILIB Project

Go to the aforementioned Command Palette and click on the icon. You should see this menu popup:

Find "Create a new project" and click on it. Once you click on it, you'll see this logo.

We can't just use a regular project either— we need a WPILIB one! (If you want to use VSC outside of FRC Programming-related stuff, check out this tutorial to create a regular Java project: . This addon already comes with Java + all its related stuff)
