## Custom Nodes & Extensions
If comfyUI doesn't have something you expect, there's probably a custom node for it.
* Custom Nodes are placed in the custom_node directory
* It's generally a good idea to put the author's name/handle as a directory/folder, then the node(s) inside it.
* some nodes come as "suites" which will include their own directory, drop the whole thing inside custom_nodes
Extensions are bits of javascript that extend the UI or some functions of comfyUI beyond the scope of nodes.
* Extensions are placed in the `web\extensions` folder/directory.
* Make sure to follow the author's instructions. These can break things. Easy to fix by removing the files.
