Day 13: MQTT, Music & Mixed Drinks

What I’ve done today

Today I went on a meetup about MQTT.

Today, MQTT is one of the most popular IoT protocols for device-to-cloud communication. The new MQTT 5 standard, published earlier this year, comes with new features and enhancements all of which make the lightweight protocol as versatile as never before.
