## Description <!-- What changed? Why? (the code + comments should speak for itself on the "how") --> <!-- Fun screenshots or a cool video or something are super helpful as well. If this touches platform-specific behavior, this is where test evidence should be collected. --> <!-- Any issues this pull request closes or pull requests this supersedes should be linked with `Closes #issuenumber`. --> Bump to wpilib 2026 beta. This does not bump our pythonlib, as robotpy hasn't come out yet. ## Meta Merge checklist: - [ ] Pull Request title is [short, imperative summary](https://cbea.ms/git-commit/) of proposed changes - [ ] The description documents the _what_ and _why_ - [ ] This PR has been [linted](https://docs.photonvision.org/en/latest/docs/contributing/linting.html). - [ ] If this PR changes behavior or adds a feature, user documentation is updated - [ ] If this PR touches photon-serde, all messages have been regenerated and hashes have not changed unexpectedly - [ ] If this PR touches configuration, this is backwards compatible with settings back to v2025.3.2 - [ ] If this PR touches pipeline settings or anything related to data exchange, the frontend typing is updated - [ ] If this PR addresses a bug, a regression test for it is added --------- Co-authored-by: Gold856 <117957790+Gold856@users.noreply.github.com>

Mac OS Installation
:::{warning} Due to current cscore restrictions, the PhotonVision server backend may have issues running macOS. :::
:::{note} You do not need to install PhotonVision on a Mac in order to access the webdashboard (assuming you are using an external coprocessor like a Raspberry Pi). :::
VERY Limited macOS support is available.
Installing Java
PhotonVision requires a JDK installed and on the system path. JDK 17 is needed (different versions will not work). You may already have this if you have installed WPILib 2026+. If not, download and install it from here.
:::{warning} Using a JDK other than JDK17 will cause issues when running PhotonVision and is not supported. :::
Downloading the Latest Stable Release of PhotonVision
Go to the GitHub releases page and download the relevant .jar file for your coprocessor.
:::{note} If you have an M Series Mac, download the macarm64.jar file.
If you have an Intel based Mac, download the macx64.jar file. :::
:::{warning} Be careful to pick the latest stable release. "Draft" or "Pre-Release" versions are not stable and often have bugs. :::
Running PhotonVision
To run PhotonVision, open a terminal window of your choice and run the following command:
$ java -jar /path/to/photonvision/photonvision-xxx.jar
:::{warning} Due to current cscore restrictions, the PhotonVision using test mode is all that is known to work currently. :::
Accessing the PhotonVision Interface
Once the Java backend is up and running, you can access the main vision interface by navigating to localhost:5800 inside your browser.
:::{warning} Due to current cscore restrictions, it is unlikely any streams will open from real webcams. :::
