Hi all,I've just launched Leet Robotics: a platform to learn robotics hands-on, with a full ROS2 workspace that runs in the browser (Jazzy, Gazebo Harmonic, Foxglove, VS Code) - no install required. The platform also has room for sharing projects and simulation assets as it grows.Our first course is live now: Intro to ROS2 (free to read). The course teaches skills ranging from building your first node to a capstone project of a robot touring a museum world, with every lesson runnable in the online workspace (free accounts get an hour of workspace time daily - enough to follow the course).Would love feedback from this community: on the course, the workspace experience, and what courses to build next.

Could you build this?
No Running full ROS2 Jazzy, Gazebo Harmonic simulation, and Foxglove visualization directly inside or streamed to browser containers requires complex container orchestration, WebAssembly/WebRTC GPU virtualization, and deep robotics engineering.
What it would actually take: Building a cloud robotics sandbox requires orchestrating ephemeral Linux containers with GPU acceleration (using WebRTC or headless VNC/wasm streaming) to run Gazebo and ROS2 nodes smoothly. It requires deep expertise in systems engineering, low-latency video streaming, container sandboxing at scale, and advanced ROS2/simulation tooling.
