Workspace Overview
Experience the upgraded ComfyUI workspace with Dynamic Island navigation
Why We Upgraded the Workspace
The previous workspace UI/UX had significant usability issues that made workflow development cumbersome and inefficient. For example, if you wanted to install custom nodes or models while working in a session, you had to:
- Exit the current session
- Navigate to the corresponding machine page
- Edit the machine configuration
- Wait for the machine to rebuild
- Return to the workflow page
- Close and restart the session
This workflow was absolutely frustrating and clunky for developers who needed to iterate quickly on their ComfyUI workflows.
The New Dynamic Island Experience
We've completely redesigned the workspace with a beautiful Dynamic Island navigation system that brings all essential features to your fingertips. The new interface features a glassy, modern design with smooth animations and intuitive organization.
Dynamic Island Navigation
The Dynamic Island organizes all workspace functionality into three main sections:
Workflow
Machine & Model Management
Configure your execution environment, install custom nodes, and manage models without leaving your session.
Playground
Gallery & Testing
Test your workflows, browse generated outputs, and organize your results with the integrated gallery.
API
Requests & Deployment
Monitor API requests, view deployment status, and manage your workflow versions.
Workflow Version Management
At the top left corner, you can easily:
- Switch between workflows - Jump between different projects seamlessly
- Select workflow versions - Choose specific versions of your current workflow
- Version control - Track changes and manage your workflow evolution
