Xadmin is a replacement for Django's built-in admin interface, designed for developers who want a more polished and flexible management panel for their web applications. Django is a Python web framework, and it ships with a basic admin panel that lets you view and edit your database records. Xadmin keeps the same familiar setup process but replaces the default visual design with a Bootstrap-based layout and adds a range of extra features. The improvements include better filtering controls for lists, including date range and number range filters, a dashboard page where you can add summary widgets, and the ability to export data in spreadsheet and structured formats like XLS, CSV, XML, and JSON. There is also a bookmarking feature that lets site users save frequently visited pages within the admin, and a plugin system that lets developers extend behavior without modifying the core code. Installing it is similar to other Python packages: one pip command adds it to your project, and you replace a reference in your Django settings to point at xadmin instead of the default admin module. Your existing model registrations carry over, so switching does not require rewriting your admin configuration from scratch. The project requires Django 1.9 or higher and a few optional packages for specific features, such as django-reversion for tracking record history or xlwt for XLS exports. Documentation was available in Chinese at the time of the README, with English documentation listed as coming soon. The repository has not seen active development in some years and should be evaluated carefully for compatibility with current Django versions before use in a new project.
