in plain english

Django JET is a replacement visual theme for the built-in Django admin interface. Django ships with a default admin panel that developers use to manage their site data, but it looks dated and is not designed for small screens. Django JET replaces those default admin templates with a cleaner, more modern layout that also works on mobile. Installing it is a few steps: you add it to your Django project settings, add a URL entry, run a database migration, and collect static files. Because it replaces templates rather than rewriting the admin logic, it requires minimal changes to existing code. Themes are supported so you can adjust the color scheme. The package also includes an optional dashboard module that is separate from the main theme. The dashboard gives you a customizable home page for the admin, and it can display Google Analytics widgets if you install an additional Python library for that integration. One important note the README makes prominent: the maintainers have moved on to a newer, separate project called Jet (or Jet Bridge), and new feature development for Django JET has been frozen. Only critical bug fixes are still being applied. If you are starting a new project, the README points you to the new version via a live demo link. Django JET is dual-licensed: AGPLv3 for open-source use and a commercial license for use in proprietary products. The AGPLv3 license has a copyleft clause, meaning that if you use AGPLv3 code in your own software, your software must also be released under compatible terms. The README notes a commercial license is available if that is a concern.
