Introduction

Welcome to LemLib! This tutorial will walk you through the basics of LemLib and how to get everything set up.

Installation - Development Environment

LemLib is a PROS template, so you can use it with any text editor. However, we recommend using Visual Studio Code, as it has the best support for PROS.

To install visual studio code, go to https://code.visualstudio.com and download the installer for your operating system

Once you have installed it, open it and install the PROS extension. You can do this by clicking typing Ctrl+Shift+X (⌘+Shift+X on Mac), searching for "pros", and clicking the install button.

And finally, we can create a new project. Navigate to the new PROS tab on the left, and click the "Create New Project" button. Select a folder, a name, v5, and when asked to select a version, select "latest".

Now we can install LemLib!

Installation - LemLib Template

To install LemLib, you need to download the LemLib@0.4.7.zip from here. Next you need to drag the zip file into your pros project folder. Once you have done that, open the pros integrated terminal by selecting the pros icon on the left, and clicking Integrated Terminal.

Next, you need to run the following commands in your PROS terminal:

pros c fetch LemLib@0.4.7.zip

pros c apply LemLib@0.4.7

Finally, put the following at the top of your main.cpp file:

#include "lemlib/api.hpp"

api.hpp

LemLib API header file. Include this in your source files to use the library.

You are now ready to start using LemLib!
