Revision history [back]

What I do is use an IDE on my development PC, where I have all the dev tools I want, plus multiple monitors etc. I play a bag with sensor data back as I am developing individual ROS nodes. When I have a working node, I transfer that code to the robot's PC. I rarely edit code directly on the robot unless it is small quick fixes, as it's more productive to work from my development PC.
