To follow along both on your laptop and with a real robot, you can install LeRobot locally using:

conda create -y -n lerobot python=3.10
conda activate lerobot

conda install ffmpeg -c conda-forge

https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot.git
cd lerobot
pip install -e ".[aloha,pusht]"

This setup lets you use the built-in Gymnasium environments (like ALOHA, PushT, or XArm) for simulation on your laptop. You can follow the Lerobot Github repo at https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot for further instructions and options.

When you’re home, you can connect your real robot using the same Python environment, just follow the robot-specific hardware configuration from the documentation.

That way, you can train and visualize policies while commuting, and deploy them on the real system later.

Not a direct answer to your question but something relevant and useful to take a look at:
