I'm a learning Python/Django programmer and want to try to create an easy web-messenger. Is it real to write web-messenger for django? And does any modules for that exist or any open-source protocols support python?

Answer 1

Not sure what you mean by 'web-messenger'. Do you mean a chat system? Django have plenty of chat apps that you can integrate into your projects.

Answer 2

Or you can install xmpp server (like eJabberd) and write a server side interface over it. It will be easier, faster and optimal solution.

Gmail and Facebook both uses xmpp protocol. People using your application will also be able to send chat request to their friends in gmail.

You wont even have to write a website interface, there are javascript library (like Converse.js) available which you can directly plug into your website and you will be good to go.
