How to Launch the simulation?

Make sure you already have a catkin workspace to work in!

Navigate to the src folder in your catkin workspace:

$ cd ~/catkin_ws/src

Clone the package:

$ git clone https://github.com/udacity/simple_arm_c.git

Source your environment:

$ cd ~/catkin_ws
$ source devel/setup.bash

After sourcing your environment, build the packages:

$ catkin_make

Make sure to install the missing system dependencies:

$ rosdep install -i simple_arm_c

Once the simple_arm_c package has been built, you can launch the simulation environment using:

$ roslaunch simple_arm_c robot_spawn.launch

Now, you should be able to see each revolute joint rotating between -pi/2 to pi/2 over time!
