    If you work with Django long enough, and at significant scale, you live long enough to b̶e̶c̶o̶m̶e̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶v̶i̶l̶l̶a̶i̶n̶ make hacky extensions to the admin. I am hoping this wor…

    quarkus looks interesting, I'll have to check it out. I think there is a strong case for officially expanding the django admin to other use cases. I suppose this is a topic for ano…

    Thats the spirit. I built this to unlock the django application from platforms in such a way

    Thats an interesting idea. One of my next steps is to create a tutorial on how to make your own panel. I'll think on this.

    I think any large enough django project has toyed around with extending the admin in some way. Hopefully this project can help establish a standard to make this sort of thing easie…

    Thank you. I think its good advice to avoid the admin for customer facing use cases. But for internal facing tools It seems pretty wasteful to not use the built in admin - it has a…

    I'm glad you feel that way. The django admin has saved my day many times.

    Thanks. Part of the reason this exists is simply wanting to toy around with the entrypoints system

    Thats an interesting way to frame it. In my view. Building things with AI creates the need for common patterns and guardrails (i.e. frameworks) Then as these new apps become produc…

    I get your point I think even if AI handles more of the CRUD side, you still need to understand what’s happening in the system once it’s running - this is where this project fits i…
