Very interesting, thanks for sharing!
Yeah, I appreciate the help. I added you as a mod.
I can mod c/ros.
I think we should have a ros community (display name ROS).
I usually use it more to help me write documentation and add comments on some functions. It helps explaining what a function does.
To write code I usually just use it to write simple functions or a template code for me to start from somewhere. I avoid using it with external Libraries as in my experience, it likes to "invent" functions and methods that are not implemented.
I use EndeavourOS with Hyprland on my laptop but I am considering trying VanillaOS (once they move to Debian base). On desktop I have Ubuntu 20.04 and EndeavourOS (both on Gnome)
The Robot Operating System (ROS) is a set of software libraries and tools that help you build robot applications. For example, ROS processes ("rosnodes") can easily communicate with each other by publishing/subscribing to topics. It also has visualization, debugging, storing and playing data, simulation, etc...
ROS is the standard in robot systems, it has a large community with most state-of-the-art algorithms in robotics implemented in ROS.
