Pinax is an open-source platform built on the Django Web Framework. It is an ecosystem of reusable Django apps, themes, and starter project templates.
This app is part of the Pinax ecosystem and is designed for use both with and independently of other Pinax apps.
pinax-messages is an app for providing private user-to-user threaded messaging.
This app was formerly named user-messages but was renamed after being donated to Pinax from Eldarion.
Follow the steps outlined in Pinax Messages Documentation to get started.
The Pinax documentation is available at http://pinaxproject.com/pinax/. The pinax-messages documentation can be found here.

In case of any questions we recommend you join our Pinax Slack team and ping us there instead of creating an issue on GitHub. Creating issues on GitHub is of course also valid but we are usually able to help you faster if you ping us in Slack.
We also highly recommend reading our Open Source and Self-Care blog post.
