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 Shuffle?

Shuffle tags builds almost daily, but the notes are empty.

Shuffle has tagged six 2.3.1 builds since November 3: release candidates 4 to 6 and three nightly builds. Only rc4 lists a change, a fix for a frontend crash; the rest link to commit comparisons. The more substantive rc1 in October handled AI agent actions in hybrid worker setups.

2.5

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.

5.0

Shuffle tags builds almost daily, but the notes are empty.

◆ Current state

Shuffle has tagged six 2.3.1 builds since November 3: release candidates 4 to 6 and three nightly builds. Only rc4 lists a change, a fix for a frontend crash; the rest link to commit comparisons. The more substantive rc1 in October handled AI agent actions in hybrid worker setups.

◆ Where it's heading

The project is iterating toward 2.3.1 with frequent builds, and the October notes show the work is about making AI agent steps run reliably in workflows. The empty release notes make it hard to see what each build changes.

◆ Prediction

A 2.3.1 final release looks close given the run of release candidates and nightlies, though the entries do not say what it will contain beyond fixes.
