 A web server faces the outside world. It can serve files (HTML, images, CSS, etc) directly from the file system. However, it can’t talk directly to Django applications; it needs something that will run the application, feed it requests from web clients (such as browsers) and return responses.

+ASGI (ASGI stands for Asynchronous Server Gateway interface) which runs through Gunicorn running the actual Django instance.
