Programming

Write the Java that actually drives your robot — TeleOp, autonomous, sensors, and control loops.

What you will be able to do

Write and structure a full season's FTC codebase in Java: a responsive TeleOp, a reliable autonomous, and mechanisms that use encoders and sensors properly.

Every lesson here runs real Java in your browser against a simulated robot, so you can write an OpMode and watch it move a virtual drivetrain before you ever touch hardware.

You do not need to know Java to start. The first unit assumes nothing.
