I working with several arduino board and now I need to control them via a web interface.

Via web interface I want to activate GPIO.

I have two ideas:

Each arduino acts as web server and I can control the GPIO via the Arduino web page. Basically one browser tab for each arduino.
Use the MQTT protocol to exchange message with the arduino boards. Furthermore I think to use an raspberry as web server and as MQTT broker. Each arduino board is subscribed to a specific topic and through a web page, hosted on the raspberry, I can control the Arduino GPIOs.
The first solution I very quicly and simple.

Regarding the second option, I don't know how to send MQTT message via a web page. I read that I need to use Websocket. Is it right? Need I to write code in Javascript or what?

My second question is: Can the MQTT broker manage both MQTT and MQTT over Websocket at the same time? Otherwise I need to use the Websocket also on Arduino.

Another option is to built a Python script with GUI that allow to send MQTT messages to Arduino.

Is there a best way?

Thanks for the help!
