Ever Gauzy vs Jorani: at a glance
What is Ever Gauzy?
Gauzy's React rewrite becomes a tenant-level switch, and its AI chat learns to listen
Ever Gauzy is shipping at a punishing rate — eleven tags in 48 hours, from v111.35.14 to v111.36.5. Almost all of that traffic is CI hardening and same-day hotfixes; the substance sits in a single tag, v111.36.0. That release adds a tenant-wide switch between the Angular and React front ends, ships the React Time Tracking dashboard at parity with its Angular original, and puts speech-to-text into the AI chat behind eight new provider plugins.
What is Jorani?
A dormant leave-management app returns with an MIT relicense and a hard break from its own API
Jorani is a self-hosted leave and overtime management app built on legacy CodeIgniter PHP. After a three-year gap, v1.0.4 arrives labelled a maintenance release but is anything but conservative: it relicenses from AGPL to MIT, moves the repository to a new organization, and deletes the Basic Auth REST API, the client-side password encryption layer and MySQL 5.7 support. The database schema is untouched, so the disruption is entirely in licensing, packaging and interfaces rather than data.

Gauzy's React rewrite becomes a tenant-level switch, and its AI chat learns to listen
◆ Current state
Ever Gauzy is shipping at a punishing rate — eleven tags in 48 hours, from v111.35.14 to v111.36.5. Almost all of that traffic is CI hardening and same-day hotfixes; the substance sits in a single tag, v111.36.0. That release adds a tenant-wide switch between the Angular and React front ends, ships the React Time Tracking dashboard at parity with its Angular original, and puts speech-to-text into the AI chat behind eight new provider plugins.
◆ Where it's heading
Two arcs are running in parallel. The React migration has crossed from internal port to a customer-visible choice, which means Gauzy now carries both UIs and every ported dashboard tightens the case for retiring Angular. The AI chat continues to extend the plugin-per-provider architecture it established back in v111.1.0, this time into voice rather than text. The tag stream around both is dominated by CI work — credential scrubbing, registry refactors, runner timeouts — suggesting the build pipeline is the current bottleneck.
◆ Prediction
Expect more Angular dashboards ported to React behind the Preferred-UI switch, one module at a time, and further voice provider plugins added to the existing bring-your-own-key pattern.

A dormant leave-management app returns with an MIT relicense and a hard break from its own API
◆ Current state
Jorani is a self-hosted leave and overtime management app built on legacy CodeIgniter PHP. After a three-year gap, v1.0.4 arrives labelled a maintenance release but is anything but conservative: it relicenses from AGPL to MIT, moves the repository to a new organization, and deletes the Basic Auth REST API, the client-side password encryption layer and MySQL 5.7 support. The database schema is untouched, so the disruption is entirely in licensing, packaging and interfaces rather than data.
◆ Where it's heading
The long arc is a small project shedding weight. Releases through 2017 filled in the workflow model — cancellation states, SSO, mandatory rejection comments, a steady stream of translations. Version 1.0.0 in 2020 rebuilt the leave-balance engine and documented an OpenAPI surface, and the two releases since have been almost entirely security and PHP-version compatibility. v1.0.4 continues by removing rather than adding, including the very API 1.0.0 had documented, and folds the old tree under a legacy/ directory — which reads as groundwork for a replacement rather than a destination.
◆ Prediction
The legacy/ layout and the withdrawn REST API point to a new API and a non-legacy codebase as the next move; the entries don't indicate on what stack, or when.
