## What it is
Django Grappelli is a grid-based skin/extension for the Django admin interface that provides a cleaner, more consistent look and feel. It adds features like autocompletes for relations, drag-and-drop sortable inlines, and a customizable dashboard.

## Use cases
- beautify the django admin interface
- customize django admin dashboard
- add autocompletes to django admin foreign keys
- reorder django admin inlines with drag and drop
- build a cms backend on django admin
- give django admin a modern grid-based theme

## When to choose
- you use Django's admin and want a polished, consistent UI
- you need sortable inlines, autocompletes, or a customizable dashboard in the admin
- you want a well-maintained admin skin tracking latest Django releases

## When to avoid
- you don't use Django or its admin site
- you need a fully custom frontend rather than an admin skin
- you rely on Django's master branch rather than stable releases

## Facets
- artifact type: plugin
- maturity: active
- function: ui-components, theme, templating
- domain: web-development, cms, backend, developer-tools
- platform: python, cross-platform
