**Hardware requirements:**
|
|
- **Windows:** NVIDIA graphics card, or run on your CPU
|
|
- **Linux:** NVIDIA or AMD graphics card, or run on your CPU
|
|
- **Mac:** M1 or M2, or run on your CPU
|
|
|
|
The installer will take care of whatever is needed. If you face any problems, you can join the friendly [Discord community](https://discord.com/invite/u9yhsFmEkB) and ask for assistance.
|
|
|
|
## On Windows:
|
|
1. Run the downloaded `Easy-Diffusion-Windows.exe` file.
|
|
2. Run `Easy Diffusion` once the installation finishes. You can also start from your Start Menu, or from your desktop (if you created a shortcut).
|
|
|
|
If Windows SmartScreen prevents you from running the program click `More info` and then `Run anyway`.
|
|
|
|
**Tip:** On Windows 10, please install at the top level in your drive, e.g. `C:\EasyDiffusion` or `D:\EasyDiffusion`. This will avoid a common problem with Windows 10 (file path length limits).
|
|
|
|
## On Linux/Mac:
|
|
1. Unzip/extract the folder `easy-diffusion` which should be in your downloads folder, unless you changed your default downloads destination.
|
|
2. Open a terminal window, and navigate to the `easy-diffusion` directory.
|
|
3. Run `./start.sh` (or `bash start.sh`) in a terminal.
|
|
|
|
# To remove/uninstall:
|
|
Just delete the `EasyDiffusion` folder to uninstall all the downloaded packages.

|
|
- **Clutter-free UI**: A friendly and simple UI, while providing a lot of powerful features.
|
|
- **Task Queue**: Queue up all your ideas, without waiting for the current task to finish.
|
|
- **Intelligent Model Detection**: Automatically figures out the YAML config file to use for the chosen model (via a models database).
|
|
- **Live Preview**: See the image as the AI is drawing it.
|
|
- **Image Modifiers**: A library of *modifier tags* like *"Realistic"*, *"Pencil Sketch"*, *"ArtStation"* etc. Experiment with various styles quickly.
|
|
- **Multiple Prompts File**: Queue multiple prompts by entering one prompt per line, or by running a text file.
|
|
- **Save generated images to disk**: Save your images to your PC!
|
|
- **UI Themes**: Customize the program to your liking.
|
|
- **Searchable models dropdown**: organize your models into sub-folders, and search through them in the UI.
|
|
|
|
### Image generation
|
|
- **Supports**: "*Text to Image*" and "*Image to Image*".
|
|
- **19 Samplers**: `ddim`, `plms`, `heun`, `euler`, `euler_a`, `dpm2`, `dpm2_a`, `lms`, `dpm_solver_stability`, `dpmpp_2s_a`, `dpmpp_2m`, `dpmpp_sde`, `dpm_fast`, `dpm_adaptive`, `unipc_snr`, `unipc_tu`, `unipc_tq`, `unipc_snr_2`, `unipc_tu_2`.
|
|
- **In-Painting**: Specify areas of your image to paint into.
|
|
- **Simple Drawing Tool**: Draw basic images to guide the AI, without needing an external drawing program.
|
|
- **Face Correction (GFPGAN)**
|
|
- **Upscaling (RealESRGAN)**
|
|
- **Loopback**: Use the output image as the input image for the next img2img task.
|
|
- **Negative Prompt**: Specify aspects of the image to *remove*.
|
|
- **Attention/Emphasis**: () in the prompt increases the model's attention to enclosed words, and [] decreases it.
|
|
- **Weighted Prompts**: Use weights for specific words in your prompt to change their importance, e.g. `red:2.4 dragon:1.2`.
|
|
- **Prompt Matrix**: Quickly create multiple variations of your prompt, e.g. `a photograph of an astronaut riding a horse | illustration | cinematic lighting`.
|
|
- **1-click Upscale/Face Correction**: Upscale or correct an image after it has been generated.
|
|
- **Make Similar Images**: Click to generate multiple variations of a generated image.
|
|
- **NSFW Setting**: A setting in the UI to control *NSFW content*.
|
|
- **JPEG/PNG/WEBP output**: Multiple file formats.
|
|
|
|

|
|
- **Stable Diffusion 2.1 support**
|
|
- **Merge Models**
|
|
- **Use custom VAE models**
|
|
- **Use pre-trained Hypernetworks**
|
|
