Casdoor vs Velociraptor: at a glance
What is Casdoor?
Casdoor is rebuilding its console on shadcn/ui, porting auth features into web2 release by release.
Casdoor tags multiple releases a day, each carrying a single commit, so the version stream reads as a commit log rather than a milestone list. The visible work splits in two: a frontend rewrite called web2 that is absorbing the old antd console into shadcn/ui and re-acquiring features as it goes, and a steady trickle of repairs on the live auth surface covering signup validation, theme handling, and translations. SAML IdP-initiated SSO in v3.161.0 is the only protocol-level addition anywhere in this window.
What is Velociraptor?
Velociraptor's recent releases are mostly about patching CVEs.
Velociraptor 0.77.3 shipped on October 5 as a bug fix and CVE release; it also adds an artifact that uploads server results to Azure Monitor and trims the columns emitted by the backup artifacts. 0.77.2 and a 0.76.7 backport in September and August were CVE fixes. The 0.77.1 feature release landed in June, but its notes in the feed only link out.

◆ Current state
Casdoor tags multiple releases a day, each carrying a single commit, so the version stream reads as a commit log rather than a milestone list. The visible work splits in two: a frontend rewrite called web2 that is absorbing the old antd console into shadcn/ui and re-acquiring features as it goes, and a steady trickle of repairs on the live auth surface covering signup validation, theme handling, and translations. SAML IdP-initiated SSO in v3.161.0 is the only protocol-level addition anywhere in this window.
◆ Where it's heading
The web2 migration is the spine of this release train, and it is advancing by increments rather than by cutover: code moves across, then the features that code backed get rebuilt on the other side. Everything else in the window is maintenance on the shipping product, sized to single commits. Expect the migration to keep consuming minor versions until web2 reaches parity with the console it replaces.
◆ Prediction
The next releases most likely continue porting console screens into web2 and cleaning up the login theme path that v3.160.0 and v3.163.3 have both touched. The entries give no signal on when web2 becomes the default, so the cutover timing is unclear.
Velociraptor
0.0INFRA · APIS
Velociraptor's recent releases are mostly about patching CVEs.
◆ Current state
Velociraptor 0.77.3 shipped on October 5 as a bug fix and CVE release; it also adds an artifact that uploads server results to Azure Monitor and trims the columns emitted by the backup artifacts. 0.77.2 and a 0.76.7 backport in September and August were CVE fixes. The 0.77.1 feature release landed in June, but its notes in the feed only link out.
◆ Where it's heading
Since June the project has been in security mode, fixing CVEs on the current line and backporting to the previous one. Feature work shows up as new artifacts, here an Azure Monitor export, which keeps Velociraptor feeding results into the logging tools teams already use.
◆ Prediction
Expect further 0.77 patch releases and possibly another backport if new CVEs are published; the timing of a 0.78 feature release is not signaled here.
