pip install git+http://github.com/mfcovington/django-system-maintenance.git@develop

Configuration
=============

Add ``system_maintenance`` and its dependencies to ``INSTALLED_APPS`` in ``settings.py``:

from django.urls import include, path

]

By default, lists of maintenance records, etc. are paginated with 30 records per page. This value can be customized in ``settings.py``:
