⁠Related Projects

This code is heavily based off of sapcc/mosquitto-exporter⁠.

I am unhappy with the speed at which the upstream makes changes, and I wanted another project in Go. Additionally, rewriting and refactoring helps someone understand more about a project and technology.

So should you use my fork? It's your choice! At the time of this writing, the upstream project had a number of pull-requests open for months for what I'll consider are "simple necessary fixes" and they have staled out. I needed those fixes today, so I forked it and rewrote it, today.
