Curated robotics learning hub
Robotics resources by Akshet Patel
Get Into Robotics is a free curated library of 99 robotics links across 8 collections: open-source projects, learning repositories, ROS, ROS 2, YouTube, university courses, books and simulators.
Direct answer
What is the best place to start learning robotics online?
Start with one free university course, practise in a robotic simulator, then clone a small open-source robot project. Add ROS 2 tutorials once you can run a documented demo. This library groups those starting points so you do not have to invent the path yourself.

FAQ
Common questions
What is Get Into Robotics?
Get Into Robotics is a free curated library of robotics learning resources with 99 links across 8 collections, maintained by Akshet Patel.
How should a beginner start learning robotics?
Finish one structured course, practise in a simulator, then reproduce a documented open-source robot demo before buying hardware. Start with the how-to-learn-robotics guide.
Should I learn ROS or ROS 2 first?
New learners should usually start with ROS 2. Use classic ROS materials when a course or legacy stack still depends on ROS 1.
Which robotic simulator should I try first?
Gazebo and Webots are common starting points for ROS-centric learning. MuJoCo suits research and reinforcement learning. Isaac Sim suits high-fidelity NVIDIA workflows.
