How to create admin model views and stand-alone pages without third-party libraries

Speaker: Marijke Luttekes

Django Admin is a powerful tool for displaying your models, but sometimes you need more than the default views offer.

Instead of creating a new interface from scratch, you can add new model admin pages to supplement the default add and edit pages.

You can even create stand-alone pages that are not bound to any model, and fill them with information or show data from external sources.

The best part: this is all possible with the built-in Django Admin tools; no need for third-party libraries.

This talk will show you how to create a model page and a stand-alone page that shows the output of a Django management command.
