    Weevil v1.1.0-rc1 Release Notes

    Release Candidate 1 - February 3, 2026

    What's New in v1.1.0

    Template System 🎯

    Transform Weevil from "empty project generator" to "start with professional code."

    Three templates available:

    1. basic (default) - Minimal FTC project

      • Clean starting point (~10 files)
      • Perfect for teams starting from scratch
    2. testing - Professional testing showcase

      • 45 comprehensive tests (all passing in < 2 seconds)
      • 3 complete subsystems with hardware abstraction
      • Learn from working, tested code
      • ~30 files, professional documentation
    3. localization - Grid-based robot positioning (NEW!)

      • 12x12 field grid system (12-inch cells)
      • Multi-sensor fusion (encoders + IMU + vision)
      • Fault-tolerant positioning with graceful degradation
      • Kalman-filter-style sensor combination
      • ~21 files, 3 passing tests

    Usage:

    weevil new my-robot                      # Uses basic template
    weevil new my-robot --template testing   # Uses testing template
    weevil new my-robot --template localization  # Uses localization template
    weevil new --list-templates              # Show all templates
