This feels like it should be in the glossary? |
| Typically using yellow and green cables, it is used to communicate with motor controllers. | ||
| For stage 1a, CAN is used to communicate with motor controllers. | ||
| A **CAN Bus** describes the type of connection. | ||
| A CAN bus starts at the SystemCore, connects all the motor controllers, and typically ends at the [Power Distribution Hub](https://docs.revrobotics.com/ion-control/pdh/overview). |

A PDH is mentioned, but not even briefly defined. While there is a link to REV docs, it would be a lot nicer to have it defined on this page, so the learner wouldn’t be required to open a separate tab just to learn about a PDH, especially since a PDH can be easily defined.

SystemCore is Systemcore and SparkMax is SPARK MAX
We're using SystemCore over SystemCore, that's an intentional choice 😃 |

I still think a lot of this is duplicative of what exists in the glossary, we should perhaps re-evaluate the utility/intent of this page. |

Description
What changed? Why? (the code + comments should speak for itself on the "how")
I added a vocabulary "prestage" page for 1a. This includes basic vocabulary for hardware/electrical terms that aren't explained in the main part of 1a but are important to know when programming the robot. This was added in after feedback was given in the discord. The page is in between the introduction and the "kitbot drive train" page, so it can be easily skipped.
This PR also fixes the Oxford commas in 1b
