Awesome Stable-Diffusion

Awesome

This is a list of software and resources for the Stable Diffusion AI model.

  • 🖊️ marks content that requires sign-up or account creation for a third party service outside GitHub.
  • 💵 marks Non-Free content: commercial content that may require any kind of payment.

Due to the fast-moving nature of the topic, entries in the list may be removed at an expedited rate until the ecosystem matures.

See Contributing.

Official Resources

  • CompVis/Stable Diffusion - The official release of Stable Diffusion including a CLI, an AI-based Safety Classifier, which detects and suppresses sexualized content, and all the necessary files to get running.
  • stability-AI/stability-sdk - The official SDK used to build python applications integrated with StabilityAI's cloud platform instead of hosting the model locally. Operation requires an API Key (🖊️💵).
  • Public Release Announcement - StabilityAI's announcement about the public release of Stable Diffusion.
  • 🖊️ Official Discord - The official Stable Diffusion Discord by StabilityAI.
  • laion-aesthetic - The dataset used train stable diffusion, useful for querying to see if a concept is represented.

Actively Maintained Forks and Containers

All forks listed here add additional features and optimisations and are generally faster than the original release, as they keep the model in memory rather than reloading it after every prompt. Most forks seem to remove the Safety Classifier which may present a risk if used to provide public-facing services, such as Discord bots.

Models and Weights

Models (.ckpt files) must be separately downloaded and are required to run Stable Diffusion. The latest model release is v1.4.

  • 🖊️ Official Model Card - Official Model Card on Hugging Face with all versions of the model. Download requires sign-in and acceptance of terms of service.
  • stable-diffusion-v-1-4-original.chkpt - The latest model's card
  • RealESRGAN Models - Download location for the latest RealESRGAN models required to use the upscaling features implemented by many forks. Different models exist for realistic and anime content. Please refer to the fork documentation to identify the ones you need.

Online Demos and Notebooks

Complementary Models and Tools

Tools and models for use in conjuction with Stable Diffusion

Img2Img

Customisation

GUIS

Most of these GUIS, unless mentioned otherwise in their documentation, include stable-diffusion.

  • AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui - Gradio based UI with extensive features such as in and outpainting, previews, xy plots, upscaling, clip-interrogation, textual inversion and more. Comes with a handy install script that takes care of most dependencies and addons.
    • Addon: txt2Mask - Addon for mask based inpainting using natural language instead of brush tools.
  • 🖊️💵 Auto SD Workflow - A UI for lstein/stable-diffusion's dream.py with optimized UX for large-scale/production workflow around image synthesis. Video Walkthrough.
  • cmdr2/stable-diffusion-ui - Another, simple to use UI for windows and Linux.
  • DiffusionBee - Self contained binary app for MacOS.
  • 🖊️ DiffusionUI - web UI made with Vue.js inspired by Dall-e using diffusers, perfect for inpainting. Video demo
  • 🖊️ KIRI.ART (formerly SD-MUI) - mobile-first PWA with multiple models (incl. waifu diffusion). Run free locally or use free & paid credits on the live site. Built with React + MaterialUI. (Source Code) MIT License TypeScript
  • 💵 NMKD GUI - Windows UI, fully featured. Closed source. Pick your own price.
  • sd-webui/stable-diffusion-webui - Very active fork with optional, highly featureful Gradio UI and support for txt2img, img2img inpainting, GFPGAN, ESRGAN, weighted prompts, optimized low memory version, optional textual-inversion and more.
  • Stable Diffusion GRisk GUI - Windows GUI binary for SD. Closed source so use at your own risk.
  • Stable Diffusion Infinity - A proof of concept for outpainting with an infinite canvas interface. (requires powerful GPU).
  • Unstable Fusion - A Stable Diffusion desktop frontend with inpainting, img2img and more
  • stable-diffusion-webui-docker - A docker based frontend integrating the most popular forks.

Upscaling

  • BasicSR - Open-source upscaling and restoration toolbox supporting several models.
  • BSRGAN - BSRGAN—another upscaling solution specialized in upscaling degraded images.
  • Cupscale - GUI for running various upscaling models, including ESRGAN and RealESRGAN.
  • RealESRGAN - ESRGAN Upscaling (2x, 4x) and content restoration. Python: pip install realesrgan
  • jquesnelle/txt2imghd - A port of the GOBIG mode from progrockdiffusion, providing high quality upscaling on top of txt2img.

Content Restoration

  • lama-cleaner - Content aware AI inpainting tool useful for removing unwanted objects or defects from images. Python: pip install lama-cleaner
  • GFPGAN - Face Restoration GAN included in several forks for automatically fixing the face deformation commonly found in SD output.
  • CodeFormer - Another Face Restoration model (Paper).

Task Chaining

  • chaiNNer - Graphical node-based editor for chaining image processing tasks.
  • ai-art-generator - AI art generation suite combining Stable Diffusion and other models for high volume art generation.
  • dfserver distributed backend AI pipeline server for building self-hosted distributed GPU cluster to run the Stable Diffusion and various AI image or prompt building model.

Prompt Building

Prompts are the instructions given to diffusion models to manipulate their output.

  • ai-art.com/modifiers - A visual reference guide for keywords.
  • krea.ai - Prompt search engine that also recommends similar prompts to the one that you click on.
    • 🖊️ With account creation, you can like and save prompts in your own collections.
  • Lexica.art - A searchable, visual database of images and the prompts settings used to create them.
  • pharmapsychotic/clip-interrogator - Jupyter notebook uses CLIP models to suggest a prompt for images similar to a given image (Demo).
  • 🖊️Phraser - A visual prompt builder drawing on a database of examples. (Requires account creation)
  • 🖊️Prompthero = Another visual prompt builder and reference library.
