Cute project.

I reported a simple XSS attack as an issue, might be worth a decent audit to make sure there are no other potential holes.

I've used Active Admin a few times [1]. I can't really comment on Wallaby, but AA does the job, although documentation is a bit a problem. I had to dig into the code more than a handful times to figure out the correct way to customize a certain form input. Also AA_addons[2] contains some useful custom input fields.

The aim of wallaby is to make extremely complicated customization possible in Rails way, it's not just about custom input fields. It's a very different thinking from AA.
