Websockets are complicated, and SSEs are easy, with a protocol that is similar to what Django already has. So SSEs are clearly a better fit with Django. Given that we want to give people a way to do async in Django (open for debate, I think so), I think it makes sense to talk about the technical implementation. I would love to see your code, especially if I can compare the two versions, and maybe ever write one using the model I'm proposing. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers (Contributions to Django itself)" group.
