## :penguin: Installation
### :package: From Debian / Ubuntu packages, with [robotpkg](http://robotpkg.openrobots.org)
1. If you have never added robotpkg's software repository, [do it now](http://robotpkg.openrobots.org/debian.html):
```bash
sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/robotpkg.list <<EOF
deb [arch=amd64] http://robotpkg.openrobots.org/packages/debian/pub $(lsb_release -sc) robotpkg
EOF
curl http://robotpkg.openrobots.org/packages/debian/robotpkg.key | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt update
```
2. installation of example-robot-data and its python utils:
```bash
sudo apt install robotpkg-py3\*-example-robot-data
```

As simple as that:
```bash
conda install example-robot-data -c conda-forge
```
### :turtle: With ROS
Just clone it (with `--recursive`) into a catkin workspace.
### :file_folder: From source
Clone it (with `--recursive`), create a `build` directory inside, and:
