## What it is
Kaffy is an admin interface package for Phoenix (Elixir) applications, inspired by Django's admin app and Rails' ActiveAdmin. It generates a customizable admin dashboard for Ecto resources with minimal code changes to the existing codebase.

## Use cases
- add an admin dashboard to a phoenix app
- manage ecto records through a web admin panel
- create custom admin pages and dashboards in elixir
- build CRUD admin interface without touching existing code
- customize admin index and form pages for resources
- add scheduled tasks and custom actions to an admin panel

## When to choose
- you have a Phoenix/Ecto application and need an admin backend quickly
- you want Django-admin-style resource management in Elixir
- you need a customizable admin UI without modifying your core codebase

## When to avoid
- your app is not built on Phoenix/Ecto
- you need a fully custom frontend admin rather than a generated one
- you need admin features for non-Elixir stacks
