Perform the following steps to install the application:
- Download the latest version from Releases.
- Extract the zip or tar file.
- Go to the extracted go-ping-sites directory.
- Copy config_sample.toml to config.toml.
- Edit the config.toml to provide your email SMTP credentials, Twilio (text message) credentials, and Website settings. In particular it is recommended to change CookieKey to a different value and set SecureHTTPS to true for production usage.
- Copy db-seed_sample.toml to db-seed.toml.
- Edit db-seed.toml to setup the initial sites to ping and contacts to notify about downtime. These can be edited later in the application website.
- Run the application.

- Go to the website at localhost:port (the port that was provided in the config.toml) and login as user admin with the password adminpassword.
- Go to the Profile tab and change the admin password.
