gazebo-controllers-config
This repo describes a systematic way of setting up Gazebo controllers to spawn robots in Gazebo and get them up and running (by Robotawi)
rrr-arm
ROS package for 3 DOF Revolute-Revolute-Revolute robot arm built from scratch using xacro model. The developed robot is visualized in Rviz, and simulated in Gazebo simulator. MoveIt config package for the robot is developed and interfaced with Gazebo (find the link at the end of the page). (by Robotawi)

Best Ways to use moveit?
In my opinion, the most challenging part of the interface with Gazebo is that the joints controllers config files are not working as expected when exported from MoveIt assistant. At the moment, I am writing a systematic way to get them written. It will be available at this link.

Best Ways to use moveit?
Here is a simple robot arm built with primitive geometry and interfaced with Gazebo. A teaching assistant from Worcester Polytechnic Institute informed me it is beneficial. He used it with a robotics course.

Tips on where to start with modelling and control of a manipulator?
I recommend starting with the CAD model of the manipulator and then using it to generate the URDF (there is a plugin for that). This will enable you to visualize and simulate it in Gazebo and make the motion planning with moveit. I even started from before that and built a simple RRR arm from scratch here. I made it without CAD, but the reason was that I wanted to understand the internals. I used moveit here for planning with collision avoidance. There are steps to generate moveit config package for your robot in the same link.
