## Summary

Rovant, a desktop ROS 2 IDE independently developed by its author, has released v0.2.0. While debugging Python nodes, users can view live telemetry in a bottom panel via rosbridge WebSocket, including flight phase, altitude, battery voltage and current, IMU acceleration and angular velocity, and cmd_vel, without switching to a separate ground station.
