Unfold is a modern Django admin theme and toolkit built on top of django.contrib.admin, providing a Tailwind CSS-based interface with dark mode, sidebar navigation, advanced filters, and dashboard components. It enhances the default Django admin without replacing it, enabling incremental adoption in existing projects.

Use cases

• modernize the django admin interface
• build internal tools and backoffice apps with django
• add dark mode to django admin
• create custom dashboards in django admin
• add advanced filters to django changelist
• style django admin with tailwind css
• add sidebar navigation with icons to django admin

When to choose

• you use Django admin and want a modern, responsive UI without replacing it
• you need dashboards, advanced filters, or a component library inside the admin
• you want incremental adoption in an existing Django project

When to avoid

• you don't use Django or its admin
• you need a fully custom frontend framework rather than an admin theme
• you require a design system outside Tailwind CSS
