This document discusses a PHP push notification system using MQTT protocol. It requires a Mosquitto MQTT server, Node.js, and Socket.io module to function. The client code connects to the Node.js server via Socket.io and subscribes to topics to listen for notifications. The Node.js code acts as a broker, connecting to the MQTT server and filtering websocket data based on topics. It listens for new notifications from MQTT and sends them to clients via websockets.
