Control Motors from cmd_vel directly

I have a program set up in which I can control all motors pwm and their directions from C code using sysfs. I also have an online dashboard from which I can publish cmd_vel messages with which I wish to control the device movement. I cannot seem to find any examples of combing a C program directly changing header pins with a ROS program handling the Twist messages.

Is there such examples which I can look into using? I need to control the header pins directly and using an extra component such as an arduino is not an option.

You should use the libgpiod instead of sysfs explains why Or use lgpio http://abyz.me.uk/lg/lgpio.html if you need pwm.

C code is compliabe with cpp code
