The visual interface is currently the way most users utilize ComfyUI to call the [ComfyUI Server](/development/comfyui-server/comms_overview) to generate corresponding media resources. It provides a visual interface for users to operate and organize workflows, debug workflows, and create amazing works.
|
|
|
|
Typically, when you start the ComfyUI server, you will see an interface like this:
|
|

|
|
|
Currently, the [ComfyUI frontend](https://github.com/Comfy-Org/ComfyUI_frontend) is a separate project, released and maintained as an independent pip package. If you want to contribute, you can fork this [repository](https://github.com/Comfy-Org/ComfyUI_frontend) and submit a pull request.

|
|
## Localization Support
|
|
|
|
Currently, ComfyUI supports: English, Chinese, Russian, French, Japanese, and Korean.
|
|
If you need to switch the interface language to your preferred language, you can click the **Settings gear icon** and then select your desired language under `Comfy` --> `Locale`.

### Workspace Areas

Below are the main interface areas of ComfyUI and a brief introduction to each part.

Currently, apart from the main workflow interface, the ComfyUI interface is mainly divided into the following parts:
|
|
|
|
1. **Main Menu**: Click to expand the function menu, including file operations, help menu, etc.
|
|
|
|
**Left Navigation Sidebar:**
|
|
2. **Left Panel Entries**:
|
|
- **ASSETS**: Displays generated images, videos, and other assets.
|
|
- **Nodes**: Lists ComfyUI native and third-party nodes.
|
|
- **Models**: Shows model information detected after ComfyUI starts. After startup, if models are downloaded, press the `r` key to refresh node definitions and get the latest models.
|
|
- **Workflows**: Displays locally saved workflows.
|
|
- **Templates**: Provides ComfyUI built-in workflow templates.
|
|
|
|
**Bottom Left Toolbar:**

|
3. **Bottom Toolbar**: Contains buttons for Help (opens runtime logs), Console (opens runtime logs), Shortcuts (displays shortcut panel), and Settings (opens settings panel).
|
|

|
|
|
|
**Bottom Right Canvas Controls:**
|
|
9. **Canvas Navigation Tools**: Can switch between move or pan modes, open the minimap, and toggle node connection display.

|
### Sidebar Panel Buttons
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
In the current ComfyUI, we provide four side panels with the following functions:
|
|
1. Workflow History Queue (Queue): All queue information for ComfyUI executing media content generation
|
|
2. Node Library: All nodes in ComfyUI, including `Comfy Core` and your installed custom nodes, can be found here
|
|
3. Model Library: Models in your local `ComfyUI/models` directory can be found here
|
|
4. Local User Workflows (Workflows): Your locally saved workflows can be found here
|
|
|
|
## Old Menu Version
|
|
|
|
Currently, ComfyUI enables the new interface by default. If you prefer to use the old interface, you can click the **Settings gear icon** and then set `Use new menu` to `disabled` under `Comfy` --> `Menu` to switch to the old menu version.
|
|
|
|
<Note>
|
|
The old menu interface only supports English.
