Easy!Appointments vs Wiki.js: at a glance
What is Easy!Appointments?
Easy!Appointments makes CalDAV sync failures explain themselves.
Easy!Appointments ships slowly through alpha and beta pre-releases. The 1.6.0 cycle added Jitsi meeting links for appointments booked on the public page, a meeting-link field, and a dedicated Google Calendar integration section. The 1.6.1 pre-releases tighten input validation and make CalDAV sync usable on local networks, with failures explained on the calendar page.
What is Wiki.js?
Wiki.js 3.0 beta adds a glossary layer while still fixing how v2 sites migrate.
Wiki.js runs two tracks: 2.x stable, which now gets only security patches, and a 3.0 beta still labeled 'not for production'. Over the past month the beta added Excalidraw live collaboration, SCIM provisioning, an audit log, AsciiDoc and draw.io editing, notifications, RTL support, and inline annotations. The newest beta adds a glossary with auto-linking, child listings on folder pages, and a links-grid content block.

Easy!Appointments makes CalDAV sync failures explain themselves.
◆ Current state
Easy!Appointments ships slowly through alpha and beta pre-releases. The 1.6.0 cycle added Jitsi meeting links for appointments booked on the public page, a meeting-link field, and a dedicated Google Calendar integration section. The 1.6.1 pre-releases tighten input validation and make CalDAV sync usable on local networks, with failures explained on the calendar page.
◆ Where it's heading
The scheduler is building out integrations (Google Calendar, CalDAV, Jitsi) and then hardening them so self-hosters can diagnose problems without reading logs. Cadence is slow, with months between pre-releases, and the 1.6.0 notes are repeated across three cuts.
◆ Prediction
A 1.6.1 stable release with the CalDAV and validation work is the likely next step; the entries don't show new integrations queued behind it.

Wiki.js 3.0 beta adds a glossary layer while still fixing how v2 sites migrate.
◆ Current state
Wiki.js runs two tracks: 2.x stable, which now gets only security patches, and a 3.0 beta still labeled 'not for production'. Over the past month the beta added Excalidraw live collaboration, SCIM provisioning, an audit log, AsciiDoc and draw.io editing, notifications, RTL support, and inline annotations. The newest beta adds a glossary with auto-linking, child listings on folder pages, and a links-grid content block.
◆ Where it's heading
The headline features are in place, and most releases now fill out navigation and structure: backlinks, folder listings, and now glossary terms that link automatically. Each release also ships migration fixes (v2 locale mapping, then rewriting 2.x paths to 3.x and hex-encoding non-Latin paths), which shows the team clearing the blockers for moving existing installs onto 3.0.
◆ Prediction
The glossary is marked work-in-progress, so the next betas will probably finish it alongside more v2-import and Docker reliability fixes. The entries still give no date for 3.0 dropping its beta label.
