Manipulator on a mobile base setup

Hey everyone,
I’m trying to set up a manipulator on a differential-drive robot and was wondering—are there any guides or demos out there for this? Also, is it okay to just use the MoveIt config for the arm without adding the base to the MoveIt setup?

The stretch_ros2 repo for the Hello Robot Stretch is probably your best bet.

The issue is that this was developed for ROS 2 Galactic and the MoveIt portion seems to have been removed on the main branch (probably because it stopped working). So it may require some reviving on your end.
