Looks super cool. Would be nice to have a "try it out" section. I wanna plug it into a simulator and write a node (is that what you call it?), to make it do something. That would make things super clear.

We do have https://docs.basisrobotics.tech/guide-getting-started/enviro... and https://github.com/basis-robotics/basis-examples/tree/main/c... but I want to improve our first time user experience. (we call them units)

Oh very cool.

Would it be crazy to try and connect it to Gazebo?

Only a little crazy - you'd have to use ros1msg or write a ROS2 message plugin. And then link together basis+Gazebo or write a bridge (bridges aren't too hard - see https://github.com/basis-robotics/basis/blob/main/cpp/plugin...).
