Hi

You will find some implementation details [here](https://discourse.nodered.org/t/node-red-mqtt-5-support/17847/24)

As for running the MQTT 5 branch...

**first ensure the directory you start from does not already have a sub-directory of `node-red` as this will be created when you git clone**

1. `git clone https://github.com/Steve-Mcl/node-red.git`
2. `git checkout mqtt5`
3. cd into the newly created `node-red` directory
4. `npm install`
5. `npm run build`
6. `npm run start`

please feedback your thoughts and experiences - it could be vital in getting this merged.

Thanks.
