ComfyUI tutorials

MODULE 01

Install and launch

Choose Desktop or portable builds and verify Python, CUDA, drivers and queue status.

  • Windows, macOS and Linux
  • GPU and CPU modes
  • Startup logs
Official setup guide ↗
MODULE 02

Canvas and nodes

Learn ports, wire types, zoom, queues, history and reusable node groups.

  • Inputs and outputs
  • Data types
  • Search and shortcuts
Core concepts ↗
MODULE 03

Models and folders

Understand Checkpoint, VAE, LoRA, ControlNet and video models.

  • models/checkpoints
  • models/vae and loras
  • Refresh missing models
Open starter workflows ↓
MODULE 04

Sampler settings

See how Seed, Steps, CFG, Sampler, Scheduler and Denoise affect the result.

  • Start with 20–30 steps
  • CFG controls prompt strength
  • Denoise controls variation

MODULE 05

Image-to-video

Prepare a keyframe, load a video model, set frames and resolution, then decode and combine.

  • Stable keyframe
  • Frames, FPS and duration
  • Low-VRAM strategy
Official templates ↗
MODULE 06

Troubleshooting

Resolve red nodes, missing models, CUDA OOM errors and flicker systematically.

  • Install missing nodes
  • Check model paths
  • Reduce frames or resolution
