## Summary Added `canvasOnly` flag to runtime-generated widgets to prevent Vue renderer from displaying them while keeping canvas functionality intact. ## Changes - **What**: Added `canvasOnly` widget option to hide upload, webcam, and refresh widgets from Vue renderer In the Canvas (LiteGraph) system, there was a small set of widgets with strictly defined components. There, if we wanted some unique or relatively complex behavior (like an upload butotn), we needed to create a separate widget that would be coupled to the original widget at runtime (and would not be serialized). In the Vue renderer system, we can simply add flags to the inputSpec or widget options and conditionally render complex UI additions -- i.e., there is no need for the hard-to-maintain runtime widget associations. Expressing such things entirely in the view layer simplifies business logic related to graph state, as we no longer need to account for preserving the connections between runtime widgets and their special siblings -- we also do not need to worry about the implications for state serialization. ## Related - https://github.com/Comfy-Org/ComfyUI_frontend/pull/5798 ┆Issue is synchronized with this [Notion page](https://www.notion.so/PR-5831-designate-canvasOnly-on-runtime-generated-virtual-widgets-so-they-are-hidden-in-Vue-ren-27c6d73d365081fb8641feec010190df) by [Unito](https://www.unito.io) --------- Co-authored-by: github-actions <github-actions@github.com>
Scripts Directory Documentation
This directory contains TypeScript code inherited from the legacy ComfyUI JavaScript frontend project. The code has been migrated from JavaScript to TypeScript while maintaining compatibility with the original functionality.
When implementing new features, prefer using the new Vue3 system over the legacy scripts.
Key Components
ComfyApi (api.ts)
Main API client class that handles communication with the ComfyUI backend. Provides methods for:
- Queue management
- Model operations
- Extension handling
- WebSocket communication
- User data management
ComfyApp (app.ts)
Core application class that manages:
- Graph manipulation
- Node management

UI Components (ui/)
Collection of reusable UI components including:
- Buttons and button groups
- Popups and dialogs
- Draggable lists
- Image previews
- Menu system
- Settings dialog
Integration with Vite
All TypeScript exports are shimmed through Vite configuration to maintain compatibility with the legacy JavaScript codebase. The shimming logic can be found in vite.config.mts.
Legacy Compatibility
This codebase maintains compatibility with the original ComfyUI Legacy Frontend while providing TypeScript type safety and modern development features.
For users wanting to fall back to the legacy frontend, use the command line argument:
