Hello Coders!
This article presents an open-source Django Admin Template that after the installation overwrites the default admin interface (all widgets). This Django Template is crafted on top of Bootstrap 5 using the latest version without a jQuery dependency by Themesberg. For newcomers, Django is a leading web framework coded and actively supported by experienced developers that provides a default admin interface. Django Template Volt aims to enhance the admin section with a responsive layout and more appealing components and widgets.

- ✨ Django Volt Dashboard - open-source starter (same design)

The product can be downloaded and used via PyPi (as a Python package) using PIP:
$ pip install django-admin-volt
// OR
$ pip install git+https://github.com/app-generator/django-admin-volt.git
Once the installation is complete, the next step is to update the Django configuration with a few things to activate the template:
👉 Step #1 - Add
admin_volttoINSTALLED_APPSnode in project settings:
INSTALLED_APPS = (
...
'admin_volt.apps.AdminVoltConfig',
'django.contrib.admin',
)
👉 Step #2 - Check
django.template.context_processors.requestis enabled
TEMPLATES = [
{
'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates',
'DIRS': [],
'APP_DIRS': True,
'OPTIONS': {
'context_processors': [
...
'django.template.context_processors.request',
...
],
},
},
]
As specified by the product documentation, for legacy apps built with Django 1.8 (of bellow) the context processors should be specified using a different syntax:
from django.conf import global_settings
TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS = global_settings.TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS + (
'django.core.context_processors.request',
)
👉 Step #3 - Create the superuser and access the admin section
$ # Create Admin User
$ python manage.py createsuperuser
$
$ # Start the application (development mode)
$ python manage.py runserver # default port 8000
Access the admin section in the browser: http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/
