## What it is
A curated awesome-list of open-source robotics projects featured in the Weekly Robotics newsletter, covering rovers, robot arms, drones, and more. It serves as a discovery index linking to buildable DIY and research robot platforms with license information.

## Use cases
- find open source robot projects to build
- discover DIY rover kits like DonkeyCar or Sawppy
- browse robotics projects featured in Weekly Robotics newsletter
- find ROS-compatible robot platforms
- research open source robot arm designs
- get inspiration for a 3D printed robot build

## When to choose
- you want a curated, newsletter-backed index of open-source robotics hardware and software
- you're looking for buildable DIY robots with known licenses
- you want to keep up with notable robotics projects over time

## When to avoid
- you need robotics libraries or frameworks rather than a link list
- you need guaranteed maintenance or support for the listed projects
- you need a single runnable tool rather than a catalog

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: documentation
- domain: robotics, awesome-lists, hardware
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: awesome-list, robotics, ros, newsletter, open-source-robots, diy-robots, rovers, robot-arms, 3d-printing
