Django Channels is a project that extends Django to handle WebSockets, HTTP2, and other protocols. It is built on a Python specification called ASGI (Asynchronous Server Gateway Interface).
Django Channels allows Django to support WebSockets and other protocols that require long-lived connections - something that Django, as a primarily HTTP-based framework, does not support out of the box. Channels does this by taking the core Django philosophy and extending it to a new event-driven architecture.
Django Channels can be added to an existing Django project or used in a new one. It integrates with Django's ORM and authentication system. You can use Django's standard models, forms, and templates with Channels. It also has support for Django's testing tools.
In conclusion, Django Channels extends the capabilities of Django, allowing it to handle more than just HTTP requests, and adding real-time and asynchronous capabilities.
