Hi,

I run my personal website on PythonAnywere and have been experimenting with websockets using Django Channels: following the tutorial at https://channels.readthedocs.io/en/stable/tutorial/index.html.

I've gotten the tutorial to work on my localhost development server, but it requires Docker / Redis to run, which I don't think is supported on the PythonAnywhere servers. Does anyone know of a good alternative? I can use the "in memory" channel layer from Django Channels, but apparently this is not recommended for production.

That would not work on PythonAnywhere yet, but we are working on making it possible.

even only the channels asig config wont work?

That is correct.

Thank you very much I will be waiting for the new improvement, to be able to deliver my opencv projects and chats in real time to demonstrate my projects with django channels
