Vanta Admin

Vanta Admin is a Django admin theme with a darker interface, tighter density, and a standalone structure that stays close to Django's admin template system.

It is designed to be portable and to avoid frontend runtime dependencies outside standard Django admin behavior. You still use Django admin; Vanta changes the shell, navigation, common controls, messages, and visual treatment so the admin feels more deliberate in everyday use.

What It Is

Vanta Admin is a complete Django admin template for projects that want a more focused, consistent interface without replacing Django's built-in admin system. It gives you a ready-made visual layer for everyday admin work, with a portable structure that stays close to Django's template system.

It includes the main admin shell, navigation, forms, tables, messages, account screens, responsive layouts, and optional matching templates for django-two-factor-auth. The links above show the full feature set in context.

Vanta Admin does not replace Django admin, change your permissions, or configure two-factor authentication for you. If your project uses django-two-factor-auth, Vanta provides matching templates and CSS for the visible 2FA screens.

Tested With

Vanta Admin supports:

  • Python 3.12 and 3.13
  • Django 6.0 and 6.1

All four combinations are covered by the compatibility test matrix.

Django 6.1 uses Django's native Content Security Policy nonce support. Django 6.0 remains fully supported without nonce attributes and renders form assets normally.

Installation

PyPI with pip

pip install vanta-admin

PyPI with uv

uv add vanta-admin

Updating

With uv

From your project root, resolve the newest Vanta Admin release and sync the environment:

uv lock --upgrade-package vanta-admin
uv sync

This works with the normal constraint created by uv add vanta-admin. If you have deliberately pinned an exact Vanta Admin version, update that pin first.

With pip

pip install --upgrade vanta-admin

Django Setup

In your Django settings file, add vanta_admin to INSTALLED_APPS before django.contrib.admin so its templates override the default admin templates.

This is usually in settings.py, or in your project's active settings module if you split settings across multiple files:

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    'vanta_admin',
    'django.contrib.admin',
    # ...
]

Then run your normal static asset flow for Django:

python manage.py collectstatic

Optional Two-Factor Auth Theme Support

If your project already uses django-two-factor-auth, place vanta_admin before the two-factor apps and before django.contrib.admin so Vanta's templates are found first:

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    'vanta_admin',
    'django_otp',
    'django_otp.plugins.otp_static',
    'django_otp.plugins.otp_totp',
    'two_factor',
    'django.contrib.admin',
    # ...
]

Configure django-two-factor-auth normally in your project URLs and settings. Vanta only provides the theme layer.

Notes

  • The package name on PyPI is vanta-admin.
  • The Django app label you add to INSTALLED_APPS is vanta_admin.
  • Two-factor auth support is visual/template support for projects that already install and configure django-two-factor-auth.
  • Vanta keeps Django admin server-rendered. It does not add a frontend runtime or a custom dashboard framework.
