# comfyui-embedded-docs — Embedded documentation for ComfyUI nodes

License: copyleft · Maintenance: active · Downloads: 2.7M/mo

## What it is and what it does

comfyui-embedded-docs is a documentation package for ComfyUI's core node library. It organizes node documentation in a structured format (locale-specific markdown files organized by node name) and integrates with ComfyUI's frontend to display help content for each node. The package is designed to be installed alongside ComfyUI and automatically makes node documentation available when the application runs.

The package supports multi-language documentation (with examples for English, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) and includes tooling for generating, translating, and syncing documentation to the main Comfy documentation repository. It has no runtime dependencies and installs as a pure Python wheel, making it lightweight to add to an existing ComfyUI setup.

Use it for:

- Install alongside ComfyUI to provide built-in help documentation for all core nodes in the UI.
- Contribute node documentation by adding or updating locale-specific markdown files in the package.
- Sync core node documentation to the Comfy-Org/docs repository for the public documentation site.
- Preview documentation changes locally during development before publishing to PyPI.
- Maintain multi-language node documentation (English, Chinese, Japanese, Korean) in a single repository.
