Getting Started

Alright, here's some first steps to get ready for the NIU Rover "crash course in how to be a robotics developer"

  1. If you're on Windows, install Windows Subsystem for Linux 2. When you get to step 6, get Ubuntu from the Microsoft Store. Also, we recommend installing and using the Windows Terminal. Install Git in WSL by running sudo apt install -y git and entering your password.
  2. If you're on Mac, familiarize yourself with how to open the Terminal (it's in the Launchpad, under Utilities, I believe). Also, install Git.
  3. Install Visual Studio Code on your host operating system (i.e. Windows or MacOS, not in WSL).
  4. Take a gander through our Git & GitHub Crash Course.
  5. Read this article: What is Docker?.
