Proposal to enhance README for better readability and improved accessibility to new users #34

@De-funkd

Description

@De-funkd

The current README.md is concise and effectively serves experienced users familiar with the project and the tech stack used. However, to make the repository more accessible to newcomers, I propose expanding the README to include:

Proposed Enhancements:

  1. Comprehensive Project Overview:

    • A detailed description of the tiago_robot project, its objectives, and core functionalities.
  2. Installation and Setup Instructions:

    • Step-by-step guidance on installing and configuring the project, including prerequisites and dependencies.
  3. Usage Examples:

    • Clear examples demonstrating how to utilize the project's features effectively.
  4. Contribution Guidelines:

    • Instructions on how others can contribute, including coding standards and submission procedures.
  5. License Information:

    • Details about the project's licensing to inform users of usage rights and restrictions.

Rationale

Expanding the README.md will:

  • Make the project more approachable for new users.
  • Facilitate easier setup and utilization.
  • Encourage community contributions by providing clear guidelines.

Additional Context

I have drafted a preliminary version of the enhanced README.md incorporating these elements. Upon approval of this proposal, I can submit a pull request with the updated document.
