Release Notes

This is an update release of WPILib for the 2025 season. This release adds the 2025 field images and AprilTags and has a small number of other quality of life improvements and fixes. This upgrade is recommended for all teams.

Upgrading from earlier 2025 releases is easy: simply download and run the new installer and it will update your current installation. If you already have the 2025 WPILib vscode installed, it will detect it and you can simply click "next" for that installation step. After installation, vscode will prompt you when opening your robot project whether you want to upgrade it to this version. Note that using the installer is required to get the new version of desktop tools such as Shuffleboard. This release is compatible with the kickoff release of the RoboRIO image, so there is no need to upgrade the RIO image if you have already done so for 2025.

The documentation for WPILib is located at https://docs.wpilib.org/ (if you have trouble accessing this location, https://frcdocs.wpi.edu/en/stable/ is an alternate location with the same content).

If you're new to FRC, start with Getting Started.

System Requirements: WPILib requires 64-bit Windows 10 or 11 (Arm and 32-bit are not supported), Ubuntu 22.04 or 24.04, or macOS 13.3 or higher. C++ teams should note that the latest version of Visual Studio 2022 is required for desktop builds. Mac users will need to have the Xcode Command Line Tools installed before running the installer. This can be done by running xcode-select --install in the Terminal.

If you're returning from a previous season, check out what's new for 2025. You will need a new RoboRIO image for 2025; this is available via the FRC 2025 Game Tools. Follow the WPILib installation guide to install WPILib.

If you're starting from a 2024 robot project, you will need to import your project to create a 2025 project. The import process is important, as it will make a few automated corrections for some breaking changes that happened in 2025. It is also necessary to import vendor libraries again, since last year’s vendor libraries must be updated to be compatible with this year’s projects.

A complete list of known issues with this release can be found here.

WPILib is developed by a small team of volunteers and the FIRST community.
