Linux/Pi novice here, took me way too long to realize that this module (MMM-MQTT) only works if you already have the Mosquitto Broker installed on your Pi. I did not know it was a separate install/package, and spent more time than I'd care to admit troubleshooting why data wasn't being received.

Just a friendly suggestion and/or notice to future novice users that there is a pre-requisite to using this module. Love the work, thanks! I followed instructions from here to get my MMM-MQTT working: https://randomnerdtutorials.com/how-to-install-mosquitto-broker-on-raspberry-pi/

(If this is somewhere already in your instructions and I just missed it, please disregard)
