How Can I create a backend admin panel for people to view their bookings?

I want to build a website with rails similar to vayable.com , triplelights.com , odesk.com etc. There will be freelancers and people hiring. Once the freelancer is hired, he would need to view a list of bookings. What's the best admin gem for this type of view?

Thanks all

I don’t think any of the “admin” gems (rails_admin, activeadmin) are going to have enough access control for this - they’re designed for site-wide admin, with CanCan support mostly for broad restrictions (think “sales staff can only modify models of type X, Y and Z”).

I suspect you’d end up writing almost as much code to bend one of them into the desired shape as you would just coding the views + controllers from scratch…

I dont think you need an admin gem for that. I’m building a similar web application with different sorts of professionals (plumbers, electricians etc.) and the only thing i use an admin gem (i use activeadmin) for, is for the actual admin to check on his data. Whatever you are trying to do (i’m not sure about the “list of bookings” you are refering) its not going to be a back-end admin thing.
