I love Django & run it in prod. I had a really tough time figuring out how to customize the Django admin interface.
You need to do a lot of overrides on things [1] and changing up the model / form behaviors etc. gets a bit clunky, but at least is manageable [2].
I will say that 99% of my work is using django+drf for REST API purposes, so I wasn't previously familiar with django templating / forms, etc. - maybe that is where the bulk of the learning curve was.
