A side-by-side editorial comparison of Dashy and ToolJet — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Dashy vs ToolJet: at a glance
What is Dashy?
Dashy ships multiple releases daily—mostly dependency housekeeping punctuated by new widget additions.
Dashy is an open-source self-hosted dashboard that ships in a high-velocity, community-driven cadence—often several patch releases per day. The current run is dominated by automated dependency bumps via Dependabot, with one substantive widget addition: a calendar widget (v4.6.10) resolving two long-standing feature requests. Individual releases are small and scoped to a single PR.
What is ToolJet?
ToolJet ships AI Builder release 4 to its LTS line, with Gemini 4 Argon support.
ToolJet's LTS v3.20.250 brings AI Builder release 4 into the enterprise edition, with cancellation handling and Gemini 4 Argon as a model option; v3.20.248 added workspace MCP OAuth with SSO login. The beta line spent the week on Node 22.23.4 for the October security release, file-permission and license-check fixes, a page-panel crash fix, and an environment flag that limits ToolJet Database edits to admins.

Dashy
5.0INFRA · APIS
Dashy ships multiple releases daily—mostly dependency housekeeping punctuated by new widget additions.
◆ Current state
Dashy is an open-source self-hosted dashboard that ships in a high-velocity, community-driven cadence—often several patch releases per day. The current run is dominated by automated dependency bumps via Dependabot, with one substantive widget addition: a calendar widget (v4.6.10) resolving two long-standing feature requests. Individual releases are small and scoped to a single PR.
◆ Where it's heading
Dashy's release pattern is more housekeeping than expansion: dependency updates keep the package graph current while occasional community-submitted widgets broaden the integration library. Beyond the top 6 entries, v4.6.7 added an `allowInsecure` prop for skipping certificate verification on internal services, v4.6.6 added status text overrides for uptime widgets, and v4.6.4 improved the Uptime Kuma widget—a cluster of quality-of-life improvements for self-hosters running home lab stacks. There's no visible architectural shift or major new capability surface.
◆ Prediction
The project will continue its community PR cadence: one or two widget additions per week interspersed with automated dependency updates. No major redesign or new integration pattern is visible in the entries.
ToolJet
5.0INFRA · APIS
ToolJet ships AI Builder release 4 to its LTS line, with Gemini 4 Argon support.
◆ Current state
ToolJet's LTS v3.20.250 brings AI Builder release 4 into the enterprise edition, with cancellation handling and Gemini 4 Argon as a model option; v3.20.248 added workspace MCP OAuth with SSO login. The beta line spent the week on Node 22.23.4 for the October security release, file-permission and license-check fixes, a page-panel crash fix, and an environment flag that limits ToolJet Database edits to admins.
◆ Where it's heading
The AI Builder work that sat in beta is now reaching LTS customers, alongside MCP connections that respect SSO. Most other changes on both lines are security bumps and hardening, which fits a product selling to enterprises that run the LTS track.
◆ Prediction
Expect AI Builder to keep adding models and EE controls on LTS, and more admin-level permission flags like the database-edit restriction.
