The ROS distro we would like to install is Dashing Diademata, code-named dashing, and it will be installed in Ubuntu 18.04 (our setup). You can find out more about how to install ROS-2 at https://index.ros.org/doc/ros2/Installation/. To get started with the installation from the source, let's set up the environment.
