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 Terragrunt?

Terragrunt graduated six experiments at once and has spent three candidates stabilising them

Terragrunt is running the v1.1.0 release-candidate cycle, now at rc3. The first candidate completed six experiments simultaneously — stack-dependencies, a content-addressable store, a catalog redesign, mark-many-as-read, opt-out-auth and DAG queue display. The two candidates since have added only bug fixes for those features plus improvements to how releases are published and verified.

Casdoor is spending its release cadence moving auth checks from the client to the server

◆ 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.

Terragrunt graduated six experiments at once and has spent three candidates stabilising them

◆ Current state

Terragrunt is running the v1.1.0 release-candidate cycle, now at rc3. The first candidate completed six experiments simultaneously — stack-dependencies, a content-addressable store, a catalog redesign, mark-many-as-read, opt-out-auth and DAG queue display. The two candidates since have added only bug fixes for those features plus improvements to how releases are published and verified.

◆ Where it's heading

The experiment-graduation model is doing what it is supposed to: features developed behind flags land together in one minor, and the candidate cycle is purely stabilisation. The release-publishing and verification work appearing in rc2 suggests supply-chain provenance is being treated as release-blocking rather than as a follow-up.

◆ Prediction

With three candidates carrying identical feature lists, v1.1.0 final is the likely next release, followed by a fresh batch of experiments opening for v1.2.
