ros2 VS ros-noetic

Please refer to ros2/ros2#1272 and Launchpad #1974196 for more information."

Try the Robot Operating System documentation for the software and control side. If you can write the low level drivers then the ROS stack abstracts the IK and other middleware layers allowing you to focus on app and problem spaces.

This old issue might have an answer: https://github.com/ros2/ros2/issues/284

In my experience, running on Mac itself is a pain. One of the big blockers is the requirement to disable System Integrity Protection. You can work around this by fiddling with the symbols or maybe building from source, but in my experience this isn't worth the effort. I've ended up using docker, and offloading various other components to the cloud etc for things that require the GPU.

I know this issue was discussed here and here . However, even after upgrading apt, I was still not able to install ROS Humble. I have tried the methods to fix this issue mentioned in the posts above but none of them work. Here is my Ubuntu version:

reading documentations in ROS2 Documentations while following the getting started guides or feature stacks such as ROS2 Navigation and ROS2 Control Reading ROS1 tutorials might help better understands how ROS meant to be but it took longer route to understand ROS2

I previously broke my system on this bug. Here is the thread on the bug. https://github.com/ros2/ros2/issues/1272

The steps are aimed at macOS Mojave and won't work on Big Sur/M1 systems without some workarounds. Here is a list: https://github.com/ros2/ros2/issues/1148

ROS 1 uses files like this in some places. ROS 2 currently uses one and you can vcs import it to clone the many many git repos that make up the source code of ROS 2: https://github.com/ros2/ros2/blob/master/ros2.repos

Check out https://robostack.github.io/. It has distributions of ROS which can be installed on a PinePhone.

Robostack (https://robostack.github.io)

Take a look at robo stack - they distribute ROS through condaforge - https://robostack.github.io/

One could use https://robostack.github.io/ to install ROS tools inside a python environment isolated from the rest of the machine

The Robostack project is packaging ROS core distributions and many third-party ROS packages built against existing conda-forge dependencies as much as possible to make things more convenient for roboticists. That's mostly how I've been using ROS for well over a year now. The virtual env isolation is great, because otherwise robotics code tends to get tied to a specific Linux OS version. Disk space is cheap, I'd rather have the flexibility and a few 4GB environments lying around.
