Is there any alternative to MAVSDK for Ardupilot in 2021?

Ground Control Software MAVLink

I am looking at the examples of MAVSDK and I see how handy they are to use, but unfortunately I cannot make them to work with Ardupilot.

Is there a modification of the software that works for Ardupilot?
Is there any other C++ library that can work with Ardupilot?

There are at least three possibilities:

  1. MAVROS works great with Ardupilot.
  2. You can use pymavlink to generate C++ Mavlink code that you can use.
  3. it should be possible to fix MAVSDK to work with ArduPilot as well.

Checkout this example: https://github.com/ArduPilot/pymavlink/pull/503

Works great in SITL.
