Document the Design Decision Behind Technical Decisions

[jasondaming]

Pure Pursuit vs Ramsete
Motion Magic is Profiled
Path Planning with alternatives
On motor controller vs on RIO PID
Java/C++/LabVIEW pro/con
Command Based vs Not
Dashboards Comparison

All of these should remain as fact based as possible and only include things that would be accepted by "all" parties.

I think this warrants further discussion on the implementation and benefits before moving forward. This is overall a good idea.

I think this should be split into separate issues, as I feel the content could be split into individual articles.

I do have overall questions

• Who writes what?
  • I feel that the more technical articles won't get written due to requiring intimate knowledge. You could scrounge up the information from other sources, but it's not a trivial task.
• We should avoid vendor specific references.
  • I'm specifically talking about CTRE Motion Magic vs ProfiledPIDController, I feel like we could abstract this to just "onboard" vs rio-based loops as you already said.
• Regarding Java vs C++ vs LabVIEW, we should focus on presentation instead of comparing/contrasting. Bullet point lists can too easily lead into bias and can be complicated or difficult to solve. Presenting this content in a way where it suggests local support and an overview of each language would be a good idea. Honestly, I am in favor of putting this content in ZTR.
