In the CentOS Section, the documentation regarding adding a net box user says to:
adduser --system --group netbox

while it should be
adduser --system -gid netbox netbox

Since I'm installing this on CentOS 8, and actually discovered Django a couple of months ago, I'd love to participate in the project and do my first pull request with this issue.
