# Node Explanations
|
|
|
|
## Purpose
|
|
|
|
The Node Explanation Engine converts technical ComfyUI node names into artist-friendly descriptions.
|
|
|
|
Many workflows contain dozens or hundreds of nodes. New artists often struggle to understand their purpose. This engine translates node functionality into simple workflow language.
