To start off with, you are going to need to download the current FTC SDK from the Official First Technology Challenge Github page. This will include a .zip file that includes all of the base structures that your team is going to need in order to develop a functional Java program.
Next, your going to need to either setup an OnBotJava or Andriod Studio environment for editing and compiling your Java projects. The links in the previous sentence will bring you to the respective tutorials provided by First Robotics.
To begin creating your first java program, open up your /teamcode folder within your FTC SDK and create a new file named main.java. Next copy and paste the following template into this new java file. This template includes basic imports, class syntax, and the init()/loop() in which will help define our robot objectives during the TeleOp period.
package org.firstinspires.ftc.teamcode; //This may change depending on where this file is stored
import com.qualcomm.robotcore.eventloop.opmode.OpMode;
import com.qualcomm.robotcore.eventloop.opmode.TeleOp;
import com.qualcomm.robotcore.hardware.DcMotor; //Needed for Motor Control
import com.qualcomm.robotcore.hardware.DcMotorEx; //Needed for Motor Control
import com.qualcomm.robotcore.hardware.Servo; //Needed for Servo Control
import com.qualcomm.robotcore.util.ElapsedTime;
@TeleOp(name="main", group="Opmode") //Name & group of OpMode within the Driver Station Phone
@Disabled //Remove when finished and ready for testing
public class main extends OpMode {
@Override
public void init() {
//Initialization Code
}
@Override
public void loop() {
//Loop Code
}
}
