Unfortunately this is not feasible due to maintenance time. In theory it would be easy to do, but each additional Python version doubles the build time (+dealing with compatibility issues for multiple versions). See e.g. https://github.com/RoboStack/ros-humble/issues/97
Furthermore, on colab you would need not just any Python but installed via conda in particular, which as far as I understand is not easy either.
Thanks very much for your prompt reply!
I understand the burdens to maintain a cross-platform packages. How about just the bare minimum say only up and running for turtlesim for proof of concepts to have RoboStack on colab. Conda is not a problem as long as the Python version of colab is kept. https://datascience.stackexchange.com/questions/75948/how-to-setup-and-run-conda-on-google-colab
Anyway is there any procedures to built/install RoboStack from sources could be shared?
Many thanks!
Yes, building locally should be relatively straightforward, see https://robostack.github.io/Contributing.html
Thanks Tobias,
I tried the Python 3.11 version on a local installation with juypterlab and I got ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'notebook.utils' from the following:
This is the same error I got with colab that is out of my comprehension. What did I miss?

That seems unrelated to RoboStack - my best guess is some version incompatibility with a too new version of “notebook”; there are several reports on this on StackOverflow.

Additional context (optional)
I would like to run RoboStack on Google colab. I tried to have a Python 3.11 venv as well as to update colab python version but both have obstacles beyond my comprehensions.
I wonder is it possible to install an older version of RoboStack against Python 3.10?
