Hi there!

~~To use the 2024 Alpha 1 release of WPILib with the XRP, please try out this example, which has a correctly configured `build.gradle`: [GitHub - bb-frc-workshops/xrp-2024-alpha-example](https://github.com/bb-frc-workshops/xrp-2024-alpha-example) (Note, I believe you’ll need to change the IP address in line 64 of `build.gradle` to `192.168.42.1`)~~

~~Also use v0.5.1 of the XRP firmware, v0.5.0 had a bug in it with the ultrasonic sensor: [Release XRP-WPILib Firmware v0.5.1 · wpilibsuite/xrp-wpilib-firmware · GitHub](https://github.com/wpilibsuite/xrp-wpilib-firmware/releases/tag/v0.5.1)~~

Please let us know how it goes, we’d love to hear any feedback you have!

Edit:

Use the new 2024 Beta 1 release of WPILib, it has an example project for the XRP. More info here:

> Hi folks, the beta version of WPILib is now available (with support for the XRP running the firmware on [GitHub - wpilibsuite/xrp-wpilib-firmware](https://github.com/wpilibsuite/xrp-wpilib-firmware)) You can download the latest beta installer here: [Release WPILib 2024.1.1 Beta 1 Release · wpilibsuite/allwpilib · GitHub](https://github.com/wpilibsuite/allwpilib/releases/tag/v2024.1.1-beta-1) Additionally, docs on how to use the XRP with WPILib are now available here: [Getting Started with XRP — FIRST Robotics Competition documentation](https://docs.wpilib.org/en/latest/docs/xrp-robot/index.html)
