Casdoor vs daedalus: at a glance
What is Casdoor?
Casdoor is spending its release cadence moving auth checks from the client to the server
Casdoor is in a tight patch cadence: six tagged releases inside a week, most carrying a single commit. The substance is concentrated in identity enforcement rather than features - password rotation and MFA setup are now enforced server-side, admin updates to a user respect the column whitelist, sessions and tokens are revoked when a user is forbidden, and phone numbers are normalised before they are stored. The remainder is release plumbing and a PostgreSQL query fix.
What is daedalus?
An epidemic-economic model teaching its interventions to react to the outbreak itself.
daedalus couples an infectious-disease model to sector-level economic costs, letting users test non-pharmaceutical interventions against both epidemic and fiscal outcomes. Over autumn 2025 the intervention layer went from a single fixed closure to sequential timed NPIs and then to closures that lift in response to the model's own instantaneous reproduction number. Alongside that, the cost functions were reworked so illness states map more carefully onto lost productivity.

◆ Current state
Casdoor is in a tight patch cadence: six tagged releases inside a week, most carrying a single commit. The substance is concentrated in identity enforcement rather than features - password rotation and MFA setup are now enforced server-side, admin updates to a user respect the column whitelist, sessions and tokens are revoked when a user is forbidden, and phone numbers are normalised before they are stored. The remainder is release plumbing and a PostgreSQL query fix.
◆ Where it's heading
Read together, these commits describe one job: closing the gap between what the console enforces and what the backend enforces. Several of them move a check that previously lived in the UI into the server, which is the work of a project being deployed into environments that audit it. New authentication providers and integrations have thinned relative to this hardening pass.
◆ Prediction
The next releases most likely continue the same sweep - remaining endpoints where an admin or user request is trusted more than the server verifies - rather than adding a new identity provider.

An epidemic-economic model teaching its interventions to react to the outbreak itself.
◆ Current state
daedalus couples an infectious-disease model to sector-level economic costs, letting users test non-pharmaceutical interventions against both epidemic and fiscal outcomes. Over autumn 2025 the intervention layer went from a single fixed closure to sequential timed NPIs and then to closures that lift in response to the model's own instantaneous reproduction number. Alongside that, the cost functions were reworked so illness states map more carefully onto lost productivity.
◆ Where it's heading
The arc is toward a model that behaves like a policy simulator rather than a scenario calculator: interventions now have their own state machine, R_t is computed inside the ODE system, and event handling has been pulled out of the output object. Correction releases sit between the feature ones, including an indexing fix the maintainers flag as required for accurate projections. The versioning is patch-level but the changes are structural.
◆ Prediction
With R_t and the next-generation matrix now available in-model, the likely next step is richer response rules keyed to those quantities; the entries give no signal on when a stable 1.0 arrives.
