馃 I have been sitting on Emma's Django Admin Deux article all day and I think it's super cool.

I struggled with it at first out of fear of how different the examples looked compared to the existing Admin code which IMO should continue to just work.

Seeing "7. Familiar Django Admin Patterns" really took the edge off for me, and it seems like once complete, we might have the best shot at expending the Django Admin another decade or two.

Django Admin Deux: Bringing Django's Admin Back to Django

Django's built-in admin is powerful, but it's essentially a separate framework within Django. After attempting to modernize django-admin2, I realized we needed a fresh approach: an admin interface that works like the rest of Django, built on generic CBVs, plugins, and view factories. Meet Django Admin Deux: a proof-of-concept admin where CRUD operations are just actions, knowledge transfers both ways, and everything feels like Django.

I would love to see a better REST story going forward too, which Emma alludes to.

While the web world pendulum is going to sway between client and server side rendering for the foreseeable future, it's a good excuse to have some underline opinions and emit JSON or some other serializable format along with some more RESTful http verbs.
