How to use the package of pr2 for Turtlebot

Hello everyone! I am beginner in Ros and working on turtlebot. I want to develop my own package by making use of some useful nodes for my turtlebot 2. I want to test my package in gazebo first and then want to try on real turtlebot. I have already read link:[http://wiki.ros.org/pr2_description] but I still don't have enough confidence and knowledge to test it. If you know any good tutorials or any way that can help learn and achieve this task?

Can you be more specific on your question? Do you already have something to test, but need help setting it up in Gazebo (and eventually real robot), or are you starting from scratch?

yes I have done work till amcl on real turtlebot following some random tutorials. Now I want to interface some more stuff with my turtlebot so I need to alter the package. That's why I want to know how to make use of nodes in the package development

You launch nodes from a launch file either with an already existing node, or you can write your own node in either python/C++. Without you being more specific, I cannot give much guidance.
