+===============================
+Running the example application
+===============================
+
+Assuming you use virtualenv, follow these steps to download and run the
+postorius example application in this directory:
+
+::
+
+    $ git clone https://gitlab.com/mailman/postorius.git
+    $ cd postorius/example
+    $ virtualenv venv
+    $ . venv/bin/activate
+    $ pip install -r requirements.txt
+
+Now we need to create the database tables and an admin user.
+Run the following and when prompted to create a
+superuser choose yes and follow the instructions:
+
+::
+
+    $ python manage.py migrate
+    $ python manage.py createsuperuser
+
+
+Now you need to run the Django development server:
+
+::
+
+    $ python manage.py runserver
+
+You should then be able to open your browser on http://127.0.0.1:8000 and see
+postorius running.
