Active Admin is a Ruby on Rails plugin for generating administration style interfaces. It abstracts common business application patterns to make it simple for developers to implement beautiful and elegant interfaces with very little effort. Customizable global navigation allows you to create usable admin interfaces for your business. Use the bundled Devise configuration or implement your own authorization using the provided hooks. Use scopes to create sections of mutually exclusive resources for quick navigation and reporting. Add buttons, links or other content in the “Action Items” section on each screen. Index screens are available in many styles. The default, shown here, is a table view, but Active Admin also supports Grids, Blocks and a Blog view. Allow users to filter resources by searching strings, text fields, dates, and numeric values. Customize the sidebar sections with a simple DSL built in to Active Admin.
