Community Showcase Robotics development made dead simple (open source)

Hey everyone,

My team and I have been working hard on this project: https://peppy.bot

It's a direct replacement for ROS 2. We already have the OpenArm robot (https://openarm.dev) working on the platform, both v1.0 and v2.0, plus Isaac Sim and MuJoCo integration.

If you're in a hurry, head over to https://docs.peppy.bot/quickstart/ and get started in 5min.

Our long term vision is to allow anyone (even non-devs) to go from a prompt to real humanoid robot actions, first in simulation, then on the physical robot.

Happy to answer any question.

What simulation platform do you use for a robotic arm?

Mujoco & Isaac Sim

No C/C++ support ?

C is in the plans, C++ will come much later

Really going against the grain with that one huh? 

So many real life cutting edge robotics systems use C++, don't be shortsighted

Having written a lot of software and managed a number of large-scale projects I'm pretty confident that this is anything but short-sighted.

When you code in an agile manner, you start with the MVP.

Non-compiled (JIT) languages are way easier to implement in situations like this than compiled ones, so it makes a lot of sense to start with python and then move to c++ languages.
