Simulating IoT Devices Without Physical Hardware 🚀

Milan K Jain
One of the recurring challenges while building IoT systems is testing device communication, telemetry handling, MQTT flows, and event-driven architectures without constantly relying on physical hardware. To solve this problem, I recently started building a lightweight IoT Simulator CLI focused on helping developers simulate virtual devices directly from the terminal. The project is designed for developers working on IoT platforms, MQTT brokers, RabbitMQ pipelines, telemetry ingestion systems, au
