In Django 1.7, the admin interface is enabled by default. After creating your project, you will be able to see a login page when you navigate to http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/.

If you enter the superuser credentials (or credentials of any staff user), you will be logged into the admin interface, as shown in the following screenshot:

However, your models will not be visible here, unless you define a corresponding ModelAdmin class. This is usually defined in your app's admin.py as follows:

from django.contrib import admin
from . import models

admin.site.register(models.SuperHero)

Here, the second argument to register, a ModelAdmin class, has been omitted. Hence, we will get a default admin interface for the Post model. Let's see how to create and customize this ModelAdmin class.
