ComfyUI
A node graph for image and video models. Steeper to learn than anything else here, and the only one that lets you build exactly the pipeline you want.

The step up from 1.5: 1024×1024 native, much better at hands, prompts and composition.
The base model was trained with adult material filtered out of the dataset, which is why the community fine-tunes are what people actually run. It needs roughly twice the memory of 1.5 and rewards a 12 GB card.
Still the sensible default for anyone whose hardware can take it.

The original web interface for Stable Diffusion, by AUTOMATIC1111. Enormously extended, widely copied, and no longer moving quickly.
Motion added to an existing image model. The technique that made short animated clips possible on a home graphics card.
The image model hub: checkpoints, LoRAs and the example images that show what they actually do. Indispensable, and volatile.
Image generation as a native Mac and iPhone app. Free, local, and startlingly good at running large models on Apple silicon.
Image generation with almost every setting hidden. Type a prompt, get a good picture. No longer actively developed.
A polished, professional-feeling image studio with a unified canvas. The one to show someone who bounced off the others.
Generation built into a real painting program. You paint, it fills in; you paint over it, it adjusts.
Another descendant of the AUTOMATIC1111 interface, aimed at breadth: many model families, and AMD and Intel GPUs as first-class targets.
A fork of AUTOMATIC1111's interface, reworked underneath for speed and lower memory use. The same screen, faster, on less VRAM.
