Could you, please, explain the procedure in the absence of the REST API? (that needs is not listed in the prerequisites... Such as java >8, maven or git)
Furthermore, at the end of the build, the folder /target/kafka-connect-mqtt-1.0-0-package/share/kafka-connect-mqtt
does not exist.

Kafka Connect starts a REST API.
You can use connect-standalone.sh instead of http to start connector, but that's not specific to this, or any connector. Please refer Kafka documentation for starting connectors
