NanoMQ on Zephyr RTOS: Running an MQTT Broker Directly on an MCU

This article shows how to run the NanoMQ MQTT broker directly on an MCU with Zephyr RTOS, so edge devices can aggregate data without a separate Linux gateway. It covers building and testing demos on ESP32-S3 hardware and qemu_x86, the Zephyr platform layer written for NanoNNG, and the current limitations of the port. TLS, persistence and MQTT authentication are not supported yet.
