MQTT Explorer is a cross-platform desktop MQTT client built with Electron and TypeScript that visualizes broker topics in a structured hierarchical tree. It supports publishing, diffing messages, plotting numeric data, and managing retained topics across thousands of topics at high message rates.

Use cases

  • browse and visualize mqtt broker topics
  • debug iot devices publishing to an mqtt broker
  • delete retained mqtt topics
  • plot numeric mqtt topic values over time
  • inspect and publish mqtt messages with a gui
  • manage smart home mqtt topic tree

When to choose

  • you need a visual, hierarchical overview of an mqtt broker's topics
  • you are integrating IoT devices or services with MQTT and want a swiss-army-knife debugging tool
  • you need to plot or diff MQTT message payloads
  • you want a polished desktop client for Windows, Mac, or Linux

When to avoid

  • you need a headless or CLI MQTT client for automation scripts
  • you want a lightweight client for embedded devices
  • you need a web-based or multi-user MQTT dashboard
