It's only syntactic sugar over the CommandScheduler's schedule method and creates a footgun because it’s too obvious to try to use in incorrect places.

This has the same effect but makes it so any user code returning CommandPtr can't discard a returned command.

This enables frc-docs to use RLIs for things that are currently in-line
code blocks, and ensures they compile, which is important with the 2027
breaking changes coming. They are kept separate from the examples to
ensure they don't polute the VSCode examples finder.
Adds the Encoder snippets used in the frc-docs Encoder article as the
first instance of this.
There are still some examples we'd like to remove here (eg Hatchbot
traditional) but this is a good start with not too many changes required
in frc-docs.
Adds a close function pointer template parameter to hal::Handle. This allows default destructors in many places.
The status parameter has been removed from close functions; in most places it was not used. Where it was, an error is printed instead.
Add LEDReader and LEDWriter helper interfaces to facilitate composing simple patterns into more complex ones, e.g. LEDPattern.solid(Color.kBlue).breathe(Seconds.of(0.75)). Pattern composition relies on changing out the write behavior; for example, offsetBy increments the indexes to write to; while blink will switch between playing a base pattern and turning off all the LEDs.
Add a view class for splitting a single large buffer into smaller distinct sections, which is useful for dealing with long chained LED strips mounted on different parts of a robot. Views cannot be written directly to an LED strip (in fact, trying to do so won't even compile).
Adds some utility methods to the Color class for interpolating between two colors, and support color representations with 32-bit integers to avoid object allocations.

This is a cleanup of the FlywheelSim class with a few added features.
- One FlywheelSim constructor that takes a plant, DCMotor, and a optional number of measurementStdDevs. The documentation now states how to construct the plant either through LinearSystemId.createFlywheelSystem or identifyVelocitySystem.
- The gearbox, gearing and moment of Inertia (J) are now private final fields. The gearing is determined from the plant in the constructor as well as the moment of inertia. There are getter methods that allow the flywheelSim to return the gearbox, gearing, and moment of inertia.
- The getCurrentDrawAmps function now uses m_x instead of getAngularVelocityRadPerSec in accordance with more accuracy and matches the patter in other sims.
- Added getter methods for the InputVoltage, angularAcceleration and torque
- (Java only) A third getter method for returning the AngularVelocity of the flywheel using a MutableMeasure as a backing field that is set when getAngularVelocity is called. This summarily returns the angularVelocity as just a Measure object. This allows the user of this class to handle unit conversions with less numerical manipulation. Alterations in C++ for this feature were not needed.
We now use a wrapper (wpi::print) to catch exceptions since we can't patch
std::print() to not throw when we ultimately migrate to it.
fmtlib and std format/print throw the same exceptions and always have. We previously patched fmt::print() to not throw a write failure exception, but we can't do that for std::print(); wpi::print() is the migration plan.
Flattens parameter from a `std::optional<std::function<...>>` to just a `std::function<...>`. This is a breaking change but a trivial one for teams to fix.
