A framework for creating flexible, powerful admin dashboards in Rails. Try the demo.
Administrate is a library for Rails that generates admin dashboards. These give users clean interfaces that allow them to create, edit, search, and delete records for any model in the application. Administrate aims to provide the best user experience, and doing as much work as possible for you, whilst also being flexible to customise.
To accomplish these goals, Administrate follows a few guiding principles:
- Stay as close to standard Rails as possible, keeping the Administrate-specific code as small as practical,
- Support the simplest use cases, and let the user override defaults with standard tools such as plain Rails controllers and views,
- Break up the library into core components and plugins, so each component stays small and pleasant to maintain.
To customize the appearance, behavior, and contents of the dashboard, we publish a set of guides for the current release.
These guides are available as markdown files in the docs subdirectory of the
git repository, too.
We publish docs for the upcoming release, which you can find at our prerelease app.
