Comfy Custom Node How-To

An unofficial, practical, collaborative Q&A to getting started developing custom nodes for ComfyUI

Unofficial - this guide isn't from the author(s) of ComfyUI.

Practical - the guide favours the practical over the formal or comprehensive.

Collaborative - I'm kicking it off, but if others don't join in the effort I'll probably give up!

Q&A - The form is (at least to start with) expected to be vaguely question and answer-like, using github issues to track open questions.

How to collaborate

Ask a question How do I do X in a custom node? Post it as an issue.

Answer a question Edit the answer list and make pull request for me to merge it in. If it's a really short answer (like "yes", or a URL, or anything shorter than a paragraph or so) just add it directly in the answer list under the question, but if it's longer, has code examples, images etc, then add a page in the answers directory, write a single sentence in the answer list, and link to the page.

Write reference pages Not everything has to be Q&A. Want to write a list of good custom nodes to look at when you're learning? Or a page of links to other sources? Go for it. Figure out a good place to put them.

Check things I'm not a ComfyUI expert, and I'm not likely to check everything anyone writes. So feel free to look for errors and PR them.

Make this look better I don't really know markdown very well. If you do, show us how to make this look better and easier to read.

Organise stuff If this works, it might get messy. If you're the type who likes to organise, feel free to sort things into themes and stuff.

Help us make this happen Want to set up a discord server or something where we can chat about this stuff?
