DESKTOP

# Run on your hardware. Free forever.

The full ComfyUI engine — open source, fast, extensible, and yours to run however you want.

[INSTALL FROM GITHUB](https://github.com/Comfy-Org/ComfyUI#installing)

## Why professionals choose Desktop

### Unlimited Customization

Install any of 5,000+ community extensions, totaling 60,000+ nodes. Build your own custom nodes. Integrate with Photoshop, Nuke, Blender, Houdini, and any tool in your existing pipeline.

### Any model. No exceptions.

Run every open-source model — Wan 2.1, Flux, LTX and more. Finetune, customize, control the full inference process. Or use partner models like Nano Banana and Grok.

### Your machine. Your data. Your terms.

Run entirely offline. No internet connection required after setup. Your workflows, your models, your data.

### Free. Open Source. No ceiling.

No feature gates, no trial periods, no "pro" tier for core functionality. No vendor can lock you in or force you off the platform. Build your own nodes and modify ComfyUI as your own.

## An ecosystem that moves faster than any company could.

Over 5,000 community-built extensions — totaling 60,000+ nodes — plug into ComfyUI and extend what it can do. When a new open model launches, ComfyUI implements it, and the community customizes and builds it into their workflows immediately. When a research paper drops a new technique, an extension appears within days.
