Custom Nodes and Extensions

The custom nodes and extensions I know about.

Custom Node List

• Many custom projects are listed at ComfyResources
• Developers with githtub accounts can easily add to the list

CivitAI

• Many custom nodes are provided as packages on civitai.
• Use the "other" type in filters or search with the comfyui tag.
  

Installing Custom Nodes and Extensions

• Some more information on installing custom nodes and extensions in basics
• Most have instructions in their repositories or on civit.
• If you install custom nodes, keep an eye on comfyui PRs. Many end up in the UI.

Useful things

• Upscale Database
  • note: stick to the universals unless there's one that fits specific needs
  • I often use 2xPNSR for quick upscales (first line, in source section).
  • lollypop x4 is my favorite for illustration style images.
• Upscales at HF is an archive of some upscalers on huggingface.
• A handy chart of aspect ratios from a reddit post
• MisterRuffian's Latent Artist & Modifier Encyclopedia
• Pickel Scanner
• Stable Diffusion Prompt Reader

inject SD into the brain

• OlivioSarikas videos
• about safetensors
• about vae
• List of nodes and examples of use (Japanese)

More SD resources

• civitai is probably the most popular model site
• huggingface is the most professional model site (a git-style repository)

Useful Things

• XNView a great, light-weight and impressively capable file viewer. It shows the workflow stored in the exif data (View→Panels→Information). Also has favorite folders to make moving and sortintg images from ./output easier. There may be something better out there for this, but I've not found it.
• Powertoys make windows experience more pleasant. Especially windows terminal
• process explorer get a better look at what is going on. Add the "GPU Dedicated Bytes" column and see what is eating away VRAM
