# Stable Diffusion WebUI Forge

Stable Diffusion WebUI Forge is a platform on top of [Stable Diffusion WebUI](https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui) (based on [Gradio](https://www.gradio.app/)) to make development easier, optimize resource management, speed up inference, and study experimental features.

The name "Forge" is inspired from "Minecraft Forge". This project is aimed at becoming SD WebUI's Forge.

# Installing Forge

If you are proficient in Git and you want to install Forge as another branch of SD-WebUI, please see [here](https://github.com/continue-revolution/sd-webui-animatediff/blob/forge/master/docs/how-to-use.md#you-have-a1111-and-you-know-git). In this way, you can reuse all SD checkpoints and all extensions you installed previously in your OG SD-WebUI, but you should know what you are doing.

If you know what you are doing, you can install Forge using same method as SD-WebUI. (Install Git, Python, Git Clone the forge repo `https://github.com/lllyasviel/stable-diffusion-webui-forge.git` and then run webui-user.bat).

**Or you can just use this one-click installation package (with git and python included).**

[>>> Click Here to Download One-Click Package <<<](https://github.com/lllyasviel/stable-diffusion-webui-forge/releases/download/latest/webui_forge_cu121_torch21.7z)

After you download, you uncompress, use `update.bat` to update, and use `run.bat` to run.

Note that running `update.bat` is important, otherwise you may be using a previous version with potential bugs unfixed.
