What scheme to use for auto-updating a web application?

Question

Django

Hello.
On the front - React, on the backend - Django.
Which stack is more suitable for automatically getting changes from the server?
Long Polling or Web Sockets?
I looked through the console how todoist works - through long polling.
But, I'm more inclined towards setting up web sockets (Django-channels).
Who faced a similar problem and who solved it.
Thank you in advance.

Answer 1

Sockets. Long Polling for synchronous jung is so-so in general. And channels fits perfectly next to synchronous views.

Answer 2

If you need interaction only in one direction (server-> client), then you can assign this task to a separate service on nodejs.
