Access points

• The admin dashboard renders star icons next to every app and model row (apps/sites/templates/admin/app_list.html and apps/sites/templates/admin/includes/dashboard_app_list_content.html).
• Clicking a star invokes the admin:favorite_toggle view defined in locals/admin.py and returns you to the current page after saving.
• Use the Favorites link in the admin navigation sidebar to open the management list (apps/locals/templates/admin/favorite_list.html). The route is registered as admin:favorite_list in locals/admin.py.
