Hi, I look at django-websockets-redis really quickly. If you decide to use Redis ASGI layer it may look familiar.
Main differences I notice so far: - ws4redis doesn't have concept of consumers and routing - it's coupled to the subset of WebSocket usage - it's propagate redis to the library api On another hand Django Channels - can be used with different channels layers (redis, rabbitmq, ipc, inmemory) - have clean api based on consumers and routing - can handle more than just websockets. HTTP2 and HTTP1.1 are supported. Chat protocols like slack or irc are possible. - you can trigger consumers from other consumers, without talking to websocket.
