Similar theme to these questions.... What's the forward-going plan for Serial port support?
https://github.wpilib.org/allwpilib/docs/2027/java/edu/wpi/first/wpilibj/SerialPort.Port.html
I see some of the USB ports supported in the enum, I assume those are supported - is there hardware-level support as well exposed to users?
Again, probably a totally-ok-if-only-USB-support thing - we used serial on exactly 1 out of the past 12 robots, only for interfacing with the old JeVois camera (which, from an FRC perspective, is pretty obsolete hardware at this point). And even USB I'm not 100% sold on - we historically had issues if the connection was flakey on the RIO - plugging/unplugging the device wouldn't always cause it to re-enumerate right, and it would take restarting robot code to get it to show up as expected.
