Django Channels
===============

**NOTE: The current master branch is in flux as it changes to match the final
structure and the new ASGI spec. If you wish to use this in the meantime,
please use a tagged release.**

This is a work-in-progress code branch of Django implemented as a third-party
app, which aims to bring some asynchrony to Django and expand the options
for code beyond the request-response model, in particular enabling WebSocket,
HTTP2 push, and background task support.

This is still **beta** software: the API is mostly settled, but might change
a bit as things develop.

Documentation, installation and getting started instructions are at
http://channels.readthedocs.org

You can also install channels from PyPI as the ``channels`` package.
You'll likely also want ``asgi_redis`` to provide the Redis channel layer.
