# ComfyBox

An alternative UI to the backend server of the Stable Diffusion webapp [ComfyUI](https://github.com/comfyanonymous/ComfyUI). Build your workflow in a graph structure and have a custom Stable Diffusion interface created for you automatically.

This project is *still under construction* and many features are missing, be aware of the tradeoffs if you're interested in using it.

## Installation

1. Download the latest release [here](https://nightly.link/space-nuko/ComfyBox/workflows/build-and-publish/master/ComfyBox-dist.zip) and extract it somewhere
2. Start the ComfyUI backend with `python main.py --enable-cors-header`
3. In the folder you extracted open the `run.bat`/`run.sh` script (requires Python 3 to be on your PATH). Alternatively you can serve the contents of the folder with a web server.

## NOTE

This frontend isn't compatible with regular ComfyUI's workflow format since extra metadata is saved like panel layout, so you'll have to spend a bit of time recreating them. This project also isn't compatible with regular ComfyUI's frontend extension format, but useful extensions can be integrated into this repo with some effort.

## Proposed Features
- All the power of ComfyUI with more convenience on top
- Autocreation of UI widgets from your workflow, quickly creating a personalized dashboard
- Arrange the UI however you like and attach custom classes/styles to each widget
- Custom widget types
- See the status of queued and finished generations and their configs in realtime
- Development with TypeScript
