Building a Secure MQTT Broker with ESP32

Video Description

In this video, we explore the potential of using the ESP32 as an MQTT broker for small IoT projects using the PicoMQTT library. We'll cover why the ESP32 is a great choice for connecting a few devices, the features and limitations of the PicoMQTT library, and how to set up the ESP32 as an MQTT broker in different network scenarios and we will also learn how to secure our MQTT broker using username and password. This library will help us create a secure and cheap MQTT broker using ESP32. We will look at two scenarios: 1️⃣ ESP32 as an MQTT broker while connecting to the home network, with all devices connected to the router. 2️⃣ ESP32 as an MQTT broker and WiFi access point, where all devices connect directly to the ESP32 to access the MQTT broker. Furthermore, we'll test the broker using: 📱 Smartphone MQTT dashboard.
