Auto Admin in Rails

27 February, 2007 - 0 comments

I'm a big fan of Ruby on Rails, but after seeing a demo of Django I became kind of awed by its automatic admin feature.

Basically you get a really beautiful admin interface for free, coupled with a solid user management system. Upon seeing this, I got the feeling it would save me many hours of work trying to implement such a functionality in my Rails apps...

Apparently someone has thought such an admin feature would be cool to have in Rails and wrote a plugin called auto-admin, alas this project seems to be a bit dorment, but it sounds really interesting.

Now I wonder, is such a feature ever going to be integrated in Rails?

How big is your potato?

Have you ever wondered how big your potato is?

Me neither, but somebody has, and they made a website to help you measure it.
