What if a Gen AI tool let you see what’s happening behind the process?
This weekend I had the chance to try out ComfyUI.
I expected the usual node-based canvas, but the tool feels more like visual programming. Instead of hiding most of the process behind a simple UI, it exposes the workflow itself.
And that’s what makes ComfyUI both interesting and intimidating.
I’m still at the early stage of figuring out this tool, but I can see it being especially useful for creatives who want precise control over their AI workflows and the ability to build their own pipelines.
I included a process walkthrough in the comments.
Have you tried ComfyUI before?
I’ve been curious about ComfyUI too. The visual programming side makes it feel intimidating at first, but also really powerful once it clicks.
I've poked at ComfyUI a bit and the exposed node graph is exactly what makes it powerful and hard to onboard into at the same time. Once you understand what each node is actually doing though, it's a lot easier to debug than a black box UI when an output goes wrong.
Awesome work
That extra complexity would pay off for me when I need to repeat the same image process. Changing one node and seeing exactly what it affects sounds better than retrying a prompt blind.
Great work
This looks so cool. I'll definitely try ComfyUI.
Great work

Instead of scrubbing through the timeline manually, I used the Descript MCP with an AI agent to instantly generate accurate YouTube timestamps, description and video titles directly from the project context — killing post-production busywork in seconds.

the blue prototype card looks cool
New project in the works, an AI-powered CRM.
Currently shaping the direction and figuring out what actually belongs on each page. A couple of pages are further along, so I'm building out the widget library now, cards, table components, status states, the reusable pieces every other screen will get built from.
Getting this right early means the rest of the product stays consistent instead of every new page inventing its own version of the same thing.
Early days, but this is the part of the process I enjoy most. Before anything's settled, when the decisions still shape everything downstream.
The widget library direction feels smart—starting with reusable cards, tables, and states should make the CRM much easier to scale without losing clarity.
