Django Semantic UI admin theme
A completely free (MIT) Semantic UI admin theme for Django. Actually, this is my 3rd admin theme for Django. The first was forgettable, and the second was with Pure CSS. Pure CSS was great, but lacked JavaScript components.
Semantic UI looks professional, and has great JavaScript components.
Log in to the demo with username django
and password semantic-admin
: https://semantic-admin.com
Documentation is on GitHub Pages.
Why?
- Looks professional, with a nice sidebar.
- Responsive design, even tables can stack responsively on mobile.
- JavaScript datepicker and timepicker components.
- JavaScript selects, including multiple selections, which integrate well with Django autocomplete fields.
- Semantic UI has libraries for React and Vue, in addition to jQuery. This means this package can be used to style the admin, and custom views can be added with React or Vue components with the same style.
Install
Install from PyPI:
pip install django-semantic-admin
Add to settings.py
before django.contrib.admin
:
INSTALLED_APPS = [
"semantic_admin",
"django.contrib.admin",
...
]
Usage
Instead of admin.ModelAdmin
, admin.StackedInline
, or admin.TabularInline
:
class ExampleStackedInline(admin.StackedInline):
pass
class ExampleTabularInline(admin.TabularInline):
pass
class ExampleAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
inlines = (ExampleStackedInline, ExampleTabularInline)
Inherit from their Semantic
equivalents:
from semantic_admin import SemanticModelAdmin, SemanticStackedInline, SemanticTabularInline
class ExampleStackedInline(SemanticStackedInline):
pass
class ExampleTabularInline(SemanticTabularInline):
pass
class ExampleAdmin(SemanticModelAdmin):
inlines = (ExampleStackedInline, ExampleTabularInline)
Awesome optional features

To enable this awesome feature, add filter_class

class Meta:

filter_class = DemoFilter
- HTML preview in Django
autocomplete_fields
