Recommendations

• You might want to add your email to the author tag on package.xml for consistency
• It'll be good if you can get the linters to run cleanly
• README.md with usage examples
• Tests
• You can try running rosdoc2 to see what documentation generation errors there are to fix
• Please namespace your code, especially if this package is intended to be used by many other downstream packages. See doc and associated google style doc, you'll prevent clashes that way
