Dokploy vs GravityKit: at a glance
What is Dokploy?
Dokploy's 0.30 line lands as cloud billing and a Docker network UI, with quiet patches since.
This feed jumps from v0.29.14 to v0.30.10, dated October 22, a tag with no notes. The GitHub releases in between show v0.30.0 adding a Docker network management UI, then Cloud onboarding, billing and trial work in September. Before that, the 0.29 line added encrypted environment variables and closed a git clone command injection.
What is GravityKit?
GravityKit folds every GravityView extension into one Pro plugin.
GravityKit ships a weekly Launch Log across its Gravity Forms add-ons, mostly security fixes and small field options. The November 12 release bundles every GravityView extension and layout into one Pro plugin with Live Filters, Connected Views and an Edit Window; the November 13 log adds paid, ranked Featured Tiers, a Pages with this View menu and more security fixes. October's notable items were Visual Merge Tags, AI-built boards and AI-managed calendars.

Dokploy

Dokploy's 0.30 line lands as cloud billing and a Docker network UI, with quiet patches since.
◆ Current state
This feed jumps from v0.29.14 to v0.30.10, dated October 22, a tag with no notes. The GitHub releases in between show v0.30.0 adding a Docker network management UI, then Cloud onboarding, billing and trial work in September. Before that, the 0.29 line added encrypted environment variables and closed a git clone command injection.
◆ Where it's heading
The commercial thread predicted from the plan limits has become concrete: the 0.30 releases include Cloud onboarding and trial handling alongside the self-hosted product. Hardening continues in smaller steps, including a Node.js security bump in v0.30.9. Patch notes have grown thinner, and two recent tags carry no change list at all.
◆ Prediction
Expect further Cloud billing and onboarding work on the 0.30 line. With v0.30.10's notes empty, its content cannot be judged.
GravityKit
5.0INFRA · APIS
GravityKit folds every GravityView extension into one Pro plugin.
◆ Current state
GravityKit ships a weekly Launch Log across its Gravity Forms add-ons, mostly security fixes and small field options. The November 12 release bundles every GravityView extension and layout into one Pro plugin with Live Filters, Connected Views and an Edit Window; the November 13 log adds paid, ranked Featured Tiers, a Pages with this View menu and more security fixes. October's notable items were Visual Merge Tags, AI-built boards and AI-managed calendars.
◆ Where it's heading
GravityKit is consolidating a sprawl of separate add-ons into fewer, larger products while steadily adding AI-assistant hooks to individual tools. Paid Featured Tiers suggest the Pro bundle is also a vehicle for listing and directory use cases.
◆ Prediction
Expect the weekly logs to continue with security fixes, and more products to follow GravityView into bundled editions.
