Install ComfyUI Locally with LM Downloader
ComfyUI is a visual tool for image and video generation, allowing you to easily modify and use AI painting and video models—just like building blocks. It supports popular models such as FLUX.1 Dev, Stable Diffusion 3.5, Hunyuan Video, Framepack, and WAN Video.
If you have some development experience, you can download the source code from GitHub and deploy it locally. Alternatively, you can directly download the client version from the official website, which is simpler and perfect for beginners to get started quickly.
