## What's Administrate?



Administrate is a library for Rails that generates admin dashboards. These give

users clean interfaces that allow them to create, edit, search, and delete

records for any model in the application. Administrate aims to provide the best

user experience, and doing as much work as possible for you, whilst also being

flexible to customise.



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



* Stay as close to standard Rails as possible, keeping the

  Administrate-specific code as small as practical,

* Support the simplest use cases, and let the user override defaults with

  standard tools such as plain Rails controllers and views,

* Break up the library into core components and plugins, so each component

  stays small and pleasant to maintain.



## Documentation



To customize the appearance, behavior, and contents of the dashboard,

we publish a set [of guides for the current release][released_docs].



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
