torch VS kaffy

Now, after this comment of mine I've been pointed to Torch and Ecto's Gen.Migration, the two looking super useful. Good points. I also started to write my CRUD admin dashboard for Common Lisp, let's see how this goes…

Psst... Elixir has this too :)

There's also Torch.

There are good libraries around authentication and authorization. There was at one point an analogue to ActiveAdmin, but it looks to be a dead project now. I generally discourage the use of those kinds of interfaces but if you must, this is more current: https://github.com/mojotech/torch

I haven't used Elixir yet and mostly using flask in Python for work but I started with Django (and still think it's better than flask for most apps). If stuff like https://github.com/aesmail/kaffy (first thing I've found on google, never heard of it before) is on par with the Django admin, would you still use Django or Elixir and never look back?

Phoenix has Kaffy: https://github.com/aesmail/kaffy

Super-simple to set up and it's been perfectly adequate for my app's needs so far.

To answer OP's original question: Django Admin isn't a killer feature because the same kind of thing is available for most other Django-like frameworks, with the only difference being that it's usually a third party library rather than something built into the framework itself.

For example some people don't know that there is kaffy which allows you to easily build admin interfaces for your Phoenix apps.

I’ll be glad to get your feedback about Kaffy if you get a chance to try it.
