This repository provides the official frontend for ComfyUI, a powerful and modular diffusion model-building interface. It targets users who want a robust, customizable, and feature-rich graphical user interface for creating complex AI workflows, offering enhanced usability and developer extensibility.

How It Works

The frontend is built using Vue 3 with TypeScript, leveraging Pinia for state management and PrimeVue with TailwindCSS for the UI. It utilizes litegraph.js for its core node-based editor functionality, enabling drag-and-drop canvas interactions, flexible node connections, and a highly interactive workflow visualization. The architecture supports extensive customization through a well-defined extension API, allowing developers to add new UI elements, commands, and integrate custom nodes seamlessly.

Quick Start & Requirements

• Install: npm install
• Run Dev Server: npm run dev
• Prerequisites: Node.js (v16+), npm, Git, a running ComfyUI backend instance (defaults to localhost:8188).

Limitations & Caveats

• The README does not specify the project's license, which is crucial for understanding usage and distribution rights.
• Development server does not load extensions from the ComfyUI server; only core extensions are loaded.
