All user modifications, including mutation of nested lists or dicts, are immediately synchronized to the Redis server.

• The dictionary implements Python's collections.abc.MutableMapping interface.
• All values stored in Redis are JSON-encoded, readily inspected with developer eyeballs and possible to operate on from clients in languages other than Python.
• Keys may be prefixed to reduce the likelihood of collisions when one Redis is shared by multiple applications.
• No data is cached locally, so it is impossible to obtain a stale result. However, the dictionary may be composed with other libraries, such as cachetools, to implement TTL caching for example.
• Top-level items like d['sample'] may be accessed without synchronizing the entire dictionary. Nested objects like d['sample']['color'] are supported (but may be less efficient).
• Mutating nested items, with operations like d['sample']['color'] = 'red' or d['sample']['positions'].append(3) triggers synchronization.
