Admin Panel Recommendation

I've spent a lot of time looking at various admin panel options for a new Laravel based application that I am building. Ideally, I would use an admin panel generator like Quick Admin Panel which I've spent a fair amount of time testing on (2019 version).

I want an admin panel that lets me create CRUD/BREAD from either an existing table or a table that I've defined directly in the tool. I want to minimize the amount of time I spend editing the underlying code.

The initial purpose of this version of the admin panel is to help me validate my data model. I want to create the tables (either from MySQL Workbench or a Migration) and then use the admin panel to create data and walk the data before I begin building the application on top of it. I view the initial admin panel as a throw away work product whose only purpose is to help me validate the data model.

I expect to build a new admin panel for the final project. But, for this conversation, I am not worried about the new admin panel for the final project.

I don't mind paying licensing fees for the right tool (not looking for something free). I prefer a SAAS solution too that can generate the code and push it to GitHub for me where I use envoyer to do the deployments/builds.

Beyond Quick Admin Panel, are there any other options that I should look at?
