The IDE

Setting up the IDE takes a while, so be prepared.

In order to send the controller inputs to the robot, two android phones communicate with each other. In order to put code on the android devices, we use Android Studio.

Unless you want to start completely from scratch, you need to download the ftc app master project. If you clone it with GitHub, you can just add the other teammates as collaborators, and then they just have to add the cloned repository on GitHub Desktop, and you'll have GitHub set up.

In order for the ftc app master to compile you'll need to be in Android Studio and go to Tools -> SDK Manager. Once it opens, select the following:

• Android API 28
• Android 7.0
• Android 6.0

Once these are checked, hit OK.

If nothing went wrong with the downloads, you should be able to open ftc app master as an Android Studio project.
