Django admin site - limit user content on user

admin.py:

from django.contrib import admin
from .models import Blog


admin.site.register(Blog)

I have figured out that Django admin serves my needs very well. The only thing I would like to limit is that Users could write/read/edit the Blog applications but for their own entries only.

If Alice posts a blog, she can read/write/edit only her posts and not the posts of Bob. Does Django allow anything like this in the admin site or do I need to develop my code?

The ModelAdmin class has a method called get_queryset() where you can specify which objects someone will see.

from django.contrib import admin
from .models import Blog

@admin.register(Blog)
class BlogAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    def get_queryset(self, request):
        queryset = super().get_queryset(request)
        return queryset.filter(author=request.user)
