It translates Lambda events from various AWS services\u2014API Gateway, Application Load Balancer, Function URLs, and Lambda@Edge\u2014into the ASGI protocol, then converts the ASGI response back into a Lambda-compatible format. This lets you write your application once using a standard ASGI framework and deploy it to Lambda without rewriting for Lambda's native event model.\n\nThe package handles practical deployment concerns: binary media types, payload compression (GZip or Brotli), and ASGI lifespan events for startup and shutdown. It integrates with standard deployment tools like Serverless Framework and AWS SAM, making it straightforward to incorporate into existing Lambda workflows. With a single runtime dependency and low install friction, it's designed to be a thin, transparent adapter.","worth_installing":"Yes. Mangum is actively maintained, permissively licensed, and carries no known vulnerabilities. Install it if you need to run an ASGI application on AWS Lambda or are considering Lambda for an existing ASGI codebase. The single dependency and low friction make adoption straightforward."},"id":"mangum","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/mangum","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/mangum.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/mangum/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-02-01","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"mangum","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"AWS Lambda support for ASGI applications"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":6749932,"position":1858,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.21.0"}
