Django greatly facilitates the management of database objects. In this article, we will see how, through the admin app, we can create/edit/delete exercises, routines, and users without having to write a single line of code.

Access the admin interface:
http://localhost:8000/admin
kr0m/Password
You will see an interface like this:
