modules/network/mqtt vs. embedded:network/mqtt

[cmidgley]

I've been using the original modules/network/mqtt client (modified heavily to package size issues) but I'm considering using the newer io version. I see the TypeScript typings are available in typings/embedded_network/mqtt, implying that it is a native service of Moddable. However, the implementation and manifest_mqttclient.json are under examples/io/tcp/mqttclient, and examples seems an unusual location for a supported service (also manifest.json includes a main.js, further demonstrating it is an example).

What is the recommended MQTT client to use? Is the examples version considered supported and stable, or are there issues still to be resolved?

Long delayed reply.... embedded:network/mqtt is preferred. The implementation will eventually migrate. There aren't known issues. If issues are identified, we're much more motivated to resolve them in the 419 implementation than the original mqtt module.
