ASGI Django Server to play Chess in real-time using Django Channels and Redis.

Master branch is for developement Django server to be run on local system (Windows). Follow these steps to use:

1. Install all the dependencies by running pipenv install (install pipenv first)
2. Ensure you have Redis running on port #6379 for it to work correctly. This can be achieved using Docker (on Windows) by running the command docker run -p 6379:6379 -d redis:5
3. Finally run server using python manage.py runserver

Prod branch was made keeping in mind the end result of deployment on Heroku using the free-tier. You can view the version that I have deployed here.
IMPORTANT! Please Read: Free tier is no longer available on Heroku so this link will not work as the dyno is down. The production steps will still work nevertheless
Follow these steps to deploy:

1. Clone this branch and create a new application on Heroku
2. Add the Heroku Redis addon to the application (free-tier available)
3. Link the cloned repo to your application and deploy
