Welcome to the Sweet Tea Guide
Sweet Tea turns powerful ComfyUI workflows into clean, approachable creative tools. Whether you're generating your first image or publishing workflows for others to use, this guide walks you through everything the product can do — on the desktop, on the web, and across both.
This guide is for anyone who wants to create with AI image generation and not fight their tools along the way. You don't need prior ComfyUI experience, though if you have it, you'll find Sweet Tea keeps the flexibility you care about.
Your First 30 Minutes
If you're brand new, these four steps will get you from zero to your first generated image:
- Download and install — Grab the installer from /download and follow the setup walkthrough in Installation & Setup. Takes about five minutes on most machines.
- Connect to ComfyUI — Sweet Tea needs a ComfyUI engine to generate images. You can let Studio manage one for you or point it at an existing install. Details in ComfyUI Integration.
- Generate your first image — Open Prompt Studio, pick a Pipe, type a prompt, and hit Generate. The full walkthrough is in Getting Started.
- Find your result — Your image lands in the Gallery with full metadata attached. Open it, inspect the settings, and try a small variation. You're up and running.
