ESP-MQTT is available through the [ESP-IDF Component Manager](https://components.espressif.com/) and ships as a standard [ESP-IDF](https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf) component.
- To add it via the Component Manager (recommended), declare the dependency in your project's `idf_component.yml`, for example:
```yaml
dependencies:
espressif/mqtt: "*"
```
Replace `*` with the version constraint you want to track, or run `idf.py add-dependency espressif/mqtt`.
- For local development, clone this repository as `mqtt` so the component name matches:
For [ESP-IDF](https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf) versions prior to IDFv3.2, please clone as a component of [ESP-IDF](https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf):
