🚀 What is Workflow Guide Generator?
Workflow Guide Generator is an artist-focused workflow documentation platform built specifically for ComfyUI.
As workflows become larger and more complex, understanding what a workflow does becomes increasingly difficult.
Many shared workflows contain:
- Hundreds of nodes
- Multiple AI models
- Custom node packs
- Complex routing
- Little or no documentation
Workflow Guide Generator automatically analyzes workflows and generates an Artist Workflow Guide directly inside ComfyUI.
The generated guide helps artists understand workflows before modifying or executing them.
