If you do not know what FRC Driver Station is, then you can read the documentation in the "Install FRC Gametools" file. Once you see a succesful message, you can now disconnect from the robot if you are on a Mac or Linux machine and then connect to the robots Wifi network on your driver station Windows machine. Once you get a connection, open up Visual Studio and again, click on the WPILib logo in the top right and type "Deploy Robot Code".
The next step is to turn on the robot, go onto the computer with the changed code that had the successful build (It doesn't matter the OS, only that it has Wifi and preferrably isn't hosting a Live Share) and then connecting to the robots Wifi network. If your code does compile/build succesfully, then you can move onto the next step. This will ensure that you don't waste battery, time on the field, etc. If your compile fails, check your code to see what is causing your error. What this will do is essentially a compile but with WPILib repos in mind. The first thing that you should do before you even turn on the robot to send your code to, is to open the WPILib Command Palette (Click on the white double with the red circle around it) and typing "Build Robot Code". However, as you'll soon read, it is not nearly as complicated as it might seem. Deploying and running/controlling code on a robot is typically seen as a daunting task for beginners.
