INSTALLED_APPS = (
    ...
    'jet',
    'django.contrib.admin',
)

• Make sure django.template.context_processors.request context processor is enabled in settings.py:

TEMPLATES = [
    {

                ...
            ],
        },
    },
]

• Add URL-pattern to the urlpatterns of your Django project urls.py file (they are needed for related–lookups and autocompletes):

from django.contrib import admin
from django.urls import include, path

urlpatterns = [
    path('jet/', include('jet.urls')),
    path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
