Benefits of using django-channels instead of not using it

I am working on a chat application, and I am wondering what are the benefits of for example using django-channels instead of making the chat in "raw" django? Thank you in advance.

django-channels is an abstraction to make building realtime applications easier. Django itself does not come with baked in websocket features so you could use raw Django and your own web sockets but it will be a lot harder and you will be reinventing lot of what django-channels does.
