I think the HTML in the templates should be coded independently from the design, there are some structural mistakes more important than the design, I have sent a ticket related to this here: Ticket #18511 ( https://github.com/django/django/pull/180) > - More customisations - a lot of people want to create dashboards > around the admin, add new sections/tabs, or move things around - the > current Admin doesn't have much scope for that, or it's not easily > accessible. > > I would like to see a RESTful api to the admin methods and bigger separation between the views and the templates, in a way that the admin could be operated from anywhere (android for example). Currently the admin app is website interface to CRUD operations, I think the admin app could be improved and turned into a CRUD engine independent of the presentation that exposes a interface that could be implemented or extended from any presentation form (android, html, rest calls).
