Dokploy vs Tasmota: 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 Tasmota?
Tasmota 16 adds optional MQTT 5.0 and DALI-2 commissioning for lighting control.
v16.0.0 Theo landed in mid-October. It adds optional MQTT 5.0 focused on request and response, initial ESP32-S31 and ESP32-C61 support, and DALI-2 device commissioning, input events and push-button bindings. HVAC work is also heavy, with a MiELHVAC web panel, Modbus RTU slave and Home Assistant discovery.

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.
Tasmota
2.5INFRA · APIS
Tasmota 16 adds optional MQTT 5.0 and DALI-2 commissioning for lighting control.
◆ Current state
v16.0.0 Theo landed in mid-October. It adds optional MQTT 5.0 focused on request and response, initial ESP32-S31 and ESP32-C61 support, and DALI-2 device commissioning, input events and push-button bindings. HVAC work is also heavy, with a MiELHVAC web panel, Modbus RTU slave and Home Assistant discovery.
◆ Where it's heading
The major number doesn't change the release's character: breadth remains the product. Two threads stand out from the driver list. Building-automation protocols are getting deeper support, with DALI-2, Modbus and OpenTherm's second heating circuit, and MQTT 5.0 updates the core messaging layer for the first time in these entries.
◆ Prediction
Expect the next release in about two months with further DALI-2 and Berry work, and fuller ESP32-S31 support, since the current support is labeled initial.
