Django Grappelli

django-grappelli is a visual and functional framework for the administration interface, providing a grid-based theme, UI kit, and a customizable landing page dashboard. It replaces the default administration interface with a structured layout designed to organize model forms and changelists.

The project distinguishes itself through specific interface enhancements, such as autocomplete lookups for relational fields, rich text editor integration, and the ability to drag-and-drop reorder inline model rows. It also includes a context-switching mechanism that allows administrators to impersonate other users to verify permission levels.

Broadly, the toolkit covers administrative layout management with collapsible fieldsets, dashboard organization featuring RSS feeds and application shortcuts, and customized template rendering for model lists. It also provides utilities for tracking recent user activity and normalizing input field rendering.
