Casdoor vs ordbetareg: 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 ordbetareg?
A brms wrapper for bounded outcomes that keeps handing users more control over the model's internals.
ordbetareg fits ordered beta regression — outcomes bounded at both ends, with mass at the bounds — on top of brms. Each release has opened up a layer that was previously fixed: v0.5.0 added posterior predictive checks and user-specified bounds, and v0.8 added a full prior override that makes cutpoint modeling possible, plus component-wise prediction of the bottom, middle and top of the scale.

◆ 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.

0.0INFRA · APIS
A brms wrapper for bounded outcomes that keeps handing users more control over the model's internals.
◆ Current state
ordbetareg fits ordered beta regression — outcomes bounded at both ends, with mass at the bounds — on top of brms. Each release has opened up a layer that was previously fixed: v0.5.0 added posterior predictive checks and user-specified bounds, and v0.8 added a full prior override that makes cutpoint modeling possible, plus component-wise prediction of the bottom, middle and top of the scale.
◆ Where it's heading
The direction is from a convenience wrapper toward something users can take apart. The pattern across releases is the same move repeated at greater depth: what was hard-coded becomes an argument. Documentation is expanding in step, with the vignette now covering power analysis and cutpoint modeling, which suggests the audience is being taught to use the lower-level controls rather than the defaults.
◆ Prediction
Given that priors, bounds and predicted components are now all exposed, the next release most plausibly extends the diagnostic and plotting surface rather than the model itself — though releases here are more than a year apart, so timing is unpredictable.
