Installation#

To use the Category model#

Install django-categories:
```
pip install django-categories
```
Add "categories" and "categories.editor" to your INSTALLED_APPS list in your project’s settings.py file.
```
INSTALLED_APPS = [
    # ...
    "categories",
    "categories.editor",
]
```
Run ./manage.py syncdb (or ./manage.py migrate categories if you are using South)

To only subclass CategoryBase#

If you are going to create your own models using CategoryBase, (see Creating Custom Categories) you’ll need a few different steps.

Install django-categories:
```
pip install django-categories
```
Add "categories.editor" to your INSTALLED_APPS list in your project’s settings.py file.
```
INSTALLED_APPS = [
    # ...
    "categories.editor",
]
```
Create your own models.
