Hello,

I'd like to gauge the general opinion of more experienced devs before 
starting on a project.

I personally love the sheer flexibility that the django admin provides me 
to get started on the DB and manage the backend. I can add actions, filters 
and charts with just a few third-party apps. On top of that, permissions to 
control user access to everything.

However, I find myself having to build a separate set of templates and view 
for internal use often as the admin is tightly tied to the DB. I find 
myself not being able to expose the admin as it requires too much 
customisation to be useful to tech & non-tech teams at the same time. 
Moreover, DB structure is not as intuitive to non-tech users.

So I'd like to build a generic admin view that is not tied to the DB but 
can still leverage the widgets (tables, inputs, messages etc.) that Django 
offers. A set of tools to design custom pages like django-etc and design 
easy-to-customise top/sidebars

My question to the reader is quite simple, is this something feasible ? Are 
all widgets tightly coupled and expect models to function ? Anything you 
believe that might trip me up? 

Thanks,
Vaz
