Tech Log #018: Device connected to map

Sending updates from an ESP32 device to the MQTT server is working! Right now, it’s just barebones running with default values for GPS latitude, longitude, and a random number for air temperature. Ran in to a few issues with library selection, but that was easily remedied. It took some time to test the types that are sent and the precision. Once it started to work, was simple. The library being used will retry connection to the MQTT server in 15 seconds if it loses connection. The next steps are either AR view, score counter, or making the sensor device. Tune in for the next log to see which one of those is chosen.
