   For runtime, I use ComfyUi [0] which is node based and therefore a bit hard to learn. But you can just look at the examples on their github. Foocus [1] also seems to be popular and a bit more conventional perhaps, though I didn't try it.

   For models, Flux [2] is pretty good and quite straightforward to use. (In general, you will have a runtime and then you have to get the model weights seperately). Which Flux variant depends on your graphics card, the Flux.1 schnell should work for most decently modern ones. (And the website, civitai.com is a repository for models and other associated tools.)

   Project mention: FLUX1.1 [pro] – New SotA text-to-image model from Black Forest Labs | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-10-03

   I usually don't want to comment on these, but: DiffusionBee's repo https://github.com/divamgupta/diffusionbee-stable-diffusion-... don't have any updates for 9 months except regular binary releases. There is no source code available for their recent builds. I think it is a bit unfair to say it is open-source app at this point given you are using a binary probably far different from the repo.

    Project mention: Keylogger discovered in image generator extension | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-06-09

    Adobe makes practical pipelines for creatives, not prototyping tools. ComfyUI is mostly for prototyping and ML nerds (I don't mean this in a bad way). There are more practical interfaces to get things done built on top of it, such as Krita Diffusion [1] and many others.

    Project mention: Open-source project ZLUDA lets CUDA apps run on AMD GPUs | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-05

    > it won't ever be a viable option

    For production workloads, I generally agree. It's an unsupported hack with a questionable future, I wouldn't do anything money-making with it.

    However, for tinkering and consumer workloads, it already works pretty well. Enough of cuDNN and cuBLAS work to run PyTorch and in turn, Stable Diffusion with https://github.com/lshqqytiger/ZLUDA - there's even a fairly user-friendly setup process already in https://github.com/vladmandic/automatic .

    I was able to get a personal non-ML related project working on my AMD card in just a few minutes, which saved me a lot of development time before I then deployed the production workload on NV hardware (this is probably why AMD pulled the plug on the project - it's almost more of a boost to NV than anything else, AMD really need people to be writing code on ROCm to deploy on AMD datacenter hardware).
