The Django admin interface optimized for iPhone/iPod touch

I’m very glad to introduce to you django-mobileadmin 0.1, something which I desperately needed because using the Django admin interface is just kind of annoying with MobileSafari on the iPhone/iPod touch platform.

So, “mobileadmin” is an alternative admin interface for Django for use with the iPhone/iPod touch. Some would call it a theme or a skin, but actually it’s more than that. Well, actually it misses some (very little) functionality of the normal admin interface. Anyway, once installed it is automatically used for any http request coming from a MobileSafari based device by using a nifty midlleware/template loader construct.

If you want to try it out yourself go to code.google.com/p/django-mobileadmin Hope you like it :)

    Looks really good. Maybe I should get an iPhone just to play with this app ;-)

    Well, as you certainly know, the monthly fees for T-Mobile’s iPhone contracts in Germany are ridiculous. Until they lower the prices I’m just using the iPod touch for administration. Which of course limits the use of all this :(

    I was hoping somebody might do something like this, but I didn’t expect it to be so beautiful. I love it, can’t wait to try it out!

    Wilson, thank you very much. Please don’t hesitate to report bugs or interface glitches.
