Provide way to run with the WSGI/ASGI protocols

[StefanBrand]

Problem

We have a Django backend and a Vue.js frontend. We also deploy Streamlit to render some charts with Django functions. Both Django and Streamlit are in the same repository and Docker image. In order to bring up both Django and Streamlit in the Kubernetes cluster we need two almost identical deployments of the same image: One for Django and one for Streamlit.

Additional context

I'm putting into practice this advice of @nthmost on the forum:

If you’re finding ASGI support to be an important aspect of whether you want to use Streamlit or not, I would recommend filing an enhancement request 7 on our github repo.

It seems a prerequisite is ASGI support in Tornado: tornadoweb/tornado#2666

Hi Stefan, I hear your request about adding a way to run with the wsgi/asgi protocols. Right now, we are working on somethings but I'll let our product team know that this request has been made. Depending on priorities, we may or may not be able to get to this. However, we appreciate the feedback a lot! 🎈

This support would also help with the deployment of a Streamlit app to AWS Lambda.

What is the state of this? :-)
