What is it?

Django Grappelli replaces or extends the default Django administration interface with a grid-based layout and a restyled look. It is installed as a Django app that overrides the admin templates and styling, so existing admin models and configuration keep working without rewriting your admin code.

The project is developed against the latest stable Django release. The README lists tested combinations of Django 5.2 LTS, 6.0 and 6.1 with Python 3.12 through 3.14, and a release table shows which Grappelli versions support Django 5.x and 6.x.

Documentation and a project website are available, and the code is hosted on GitHub with an official PyPI package.
