comfyui-model-manager

Download, browse and delete models in ComfyUI.

About this fork

I made this fork because the original repo was inactive and missing many things I needed to make ComfyUI more usable. Also, many other custom nodes bundle unrelated features together or search the internet in the background.

Fork Improvements
