django-admin2 is an extendable, adaptable rewrite of django.contrib.admin built on modern Class-Based Views, with drop-in themes and a built-in RESTful API. It aims to eliminate legacy code and make writing admin extensions and themes easier.

Use cases

  • replace django.contrib.admin with a more extensible admin backend
  • customize the Django admin with drop-in themes
  • get a RESTful API alongside the Django admin
  • build custom admin extensions using class-based views
  • manage site data through an adaptable admin interface

When to choose

  • you need deep customization of the Django admin that the stock admin makes difficult
  • you want an admin with a built-in browsable REST API
  • you prefer a modern class-based-view architecture for admin extensions

When to avoid

  • you just need the standard Django admin - django.contrib.admin is more mature and widely supported
  • you need long-term active maintenance - the latest release dates to 2022
  • you're on older Django/Python versions outside its supported range
