Expanding the Use of FTCLib to the VRS #224

Hi, I am the Director for the FIRST Tech Challenge in Illinois. We are struggling to get the Java aspect to work correctly, all the time. We have 2 seasons with robot simulators https://bit.ly/Power-Play-VRS and https://bit.ly/VRS-UG . These are Electron ‘wrapper” apps that communicates to Unity/Webgl but this process doesn’t accept Java code only javascript.
Problem: 1)We need a process that can convert Java to JavaScript.
2) We have a problem in that we can only run 1 class

I would like to chat with you about seeing if FTCLIB could help with our project.
Our current approach was to take each Java program that was written and individually make it work in/with JavaScript sort of like creating a dictionary. One of many problems with this is that we can’t adapt to multiple classes- and this is where FTCLIB might fit in.
Note-I’m the director and can answer some questions but to get under the hood- we will need to bring in some other team members.
I hope you might be interested in helping or could point me to someone who can help. . Here is a design document https://bit.ly/VRS-design AN overview of communication in the VRS https://bit.ly/VRS-Communication
See error examples what we get https://docs.google.com/document/d/1tq9FFi6Lmkev9xZwXnCDjJ1iC1Cw4p8b75sxaVswmQk/edit?usp=sharing
