Real-time apps need a way to push updates the moment data changes.
In this guide, @webmekanic_ teaches you how to build a live update system using Mosquitto (MQTT), Express.js, and Server-Sent Events.
You’ll learn how to publish and subscribe to MQTT topics, stream updates to browsers, and build a working live scores dashboard from scratch.
