Setup:

Install all necessary modules. I recommend you to use a virtual environment.

Project uses environment variables for higher security. Create .env file and add following lines:

SECRET_KEY=django-insecure-nkum3o+ps4c@_*in8j^f9c!5_4cymjh)_=90+7xext-wdtngol
DB_NAME=
DB_USER=
DB_PASSWORD=
DB_HOST=
DB_PORT=
EMAIL_HOST=
EMAIL_PORT=
EMAIL_USER=
EMAIL_PASS=

Project runs on PostgreSQL by default, so environment variables with prefix DB should according to postgres db or you can modify django settings to use another database engine.

For email services provided by Google (gmail) set environment variables: EMAIL_HOST=smtp.gmail.com and EMAIL_PORT=465.
