What is Frappe Framework?

Two trains ship the same features minutes apart while v16 absorbs the CRM stack.

v15 and v16 now release in lockstep: v15.118.0 and v16.31.0 went out the same minute carrying the same two features, a between filter for numbers and dates and an activity timeline that records edits, milestones, and sharing events. What separates them is what only v16 receives — a Recorder timeline for document lifecycle, a grouped settings dialog, Cloud Settings in Desk. Both trains carry the same breaking export change, where CSV and Excel now show linked-record titles instead of internal names.

What is WildFly?

WildFly's quarterly train is really a stability ladder, and OIDC keeps climbing it

WildFly is four majors into a metronomic release train — 38 through 41 in about eight months — where each cycle pairs a Beta with a Final roughly two weeks later that restates the same feature list. The substantive work splits cleanly in two: Jakarta EE 11 and MicroProfile spec implementations that land first in WildFly Preview, and an explicit stability ladder (preview to community to default) that individual features climb one release at a time. OIDC is the feature getting the most of that attention, with scope attributes, request/request_uri parameters, and logout each promoted across the last three cycles.

Frappe Framework vs WildFly: editorial side-by-side

F5.0

Two trains ship the same features minutes apart while v16 absorbs the CRM stack.

◆ Current state

v15 and v16 now release in lockstep: v15.118.0 and v16.31.0 went out the same minute carrying the same two features, a between filter for numbers and dates and an activity timeline that records edits, milestones, and sharing events. What separates them is what only v16 receives — a Recorder timeline for document lifecycle, a grouped settings dialog, Cloud Settings in Desk. Both trains carry the same breaking export change, where CSV and Excel now show linked-record titles instead of internal names.

◆ Where it's heading

v15 is being held at parity on features that are cheap to backport while v16 takes everything structural. The clearest case is the shared CRM and Helpdesk layer — forms, phone number fields, notifications, activity history — being folded into the framework so those apps stop carrying their own copies. Running underneath both is steady permission work: access checks on linked-record lookups, Report scripts restricted to approved methods, server-side Google sign-in, one-time codes for linked accounts.

◆ Prediction

Expect v16 minors to keep pulling app-level features into the framework while v15 receives only the small portable ones; the divergence between the two Features sections is already the reliable tell.

WildFly's quarterly train is really a stability ladder, and OIDC keeps climbing it

◆ Current state

WildFly is four majors into a metronomic release train — 38 through 41 in about eight months — where each cycle pairs a Beta with a Final roughly two weeks later that restates the same feature list. The substantive work splits cleanly in two: Jakarta EE 11 and MicroProfile spec implementations that land first in WildFly Preview, and an explicit stability ladder (preview to community to default) that individual features climb one release at a time. OIDC is the feature getting the most of that attention, with scope attributes, request/request_uri parameters, and logout each promoted across the last three cycles.

◆ Where it's heading

The direction is consolidation rather than expansion: features already written are being graduated to supported status instead of new subsystems appearing. In parallel the runtime baseline is moving underneath users — 40.0.1 shipped container images for JDK 25 on UBI 10 and flagged it as the last release carrying JDK 17 images. Expect the EE 11 work now sitting in Preview to graduate into standard WildFly on the same ladder OIDC has been walking.

◆ Prediction

WildFly 42 should ship container images on JDK 21 and JDK 25 only, with the remaining Preview-stability EE 11 integrations promoted toward default.
