What Is Administrate?

Administrate is a library for Rails apps that automatically generates admin dashboards. Administrate's admin dashboards give non-technical users clean interfaces that allow them to create, edit, search, and delete records for any model in the application.

Administrate solves the same problem as Rails Admin and ActiveAdmin, but aims to provide a better user experience for site admins, and to be easier for developers to customize.

To accomplish these goals, Administrate follows a few guiding principles:

Documentation

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.

Contributing

Please see CONTRIBUTING.md.

Administrate was originally written by Grace Youngblood and is now maintained by Nick Charlton. Many improvements and bugfixes were contributed by the open source community.
