  DaBo is a customizable MQTT publisher written in Python,
  designed to broadcast synthetic sensor data for testing,
  prototyping, and demonstration purposes. It uses the
  Eclipse Paho-MQTT library to publish data to an MQTT
  broker and is fully containerised for easy deployment.
  DaBo simulates sensor readings using randomised and
  time-aware functions, making it ideal for visualising data
  flows when real-world data is unavailable or impractical
  to use: prototyping data pipelines; testing MQTT-based
  dashboards; demonstrating real-time data visualisation;
  teaching and experimentation.
