Django generic many-to-many field implementation.
This django application exposes a GM2MField that combines
the features of the standard Django ManyToManyField and
GenericForeighKey and that can be used exactly the same way.
It has been tested with Django 2.2.*, 3.0.*, 3.1.*, 3.2.*, 4.0.*, 4.1.*, 4.2.*, 5.0.*, 5.1.* and their compatible Python versions (3.8 to 3.12).

- Works like the built-in Django related fields
- Creates one table per relation, like
ManyToManyField, and not one big table linking anything to anything (django-generic-m2m's default approach) - No need to modify nor monkey-patch the existing model classes that need to be linked
- Automatic reverse relations when an instance is added
- Related objects prefetching
- Through models support
- Deletion behaviour customization using signals
- Migrations support
The documentation is hosted on readthedocs. You'll find a quick start and the description of all django-gm2m's advanced features.
