 For the installation of ComfyUI, it is mainly divided into several steps:
 1. Create a virtual environment(avoid polluting the system-level Python environment)
 2. Clone the ComfyUI code repository
 3. Install dependencies
 4. Start ComfyUI
 
+<Note>
+Python 3.13 is very well supported. If you have trouble with some custom node dependencies on 3.13 you can try 3.12.
+
+Python 3.14 will work if you comment out the `kornia` dependency in the requirements.txt file (breaks the canny node) but it is not recommended.
+</Note>

 You can also refer to [ComfyUI CLI](/comfy-cli/getting-started) to install ComfyUI, it is a command line tool that can easily install ComfyUI and manage its dependencies.

+## Adding Extra Model Paths
+
+If you want to manage your model files outside of `ComfyUI/models`, you may have the following reasons:
+
+- You have multiple ComfyUI instances and want them to share model files to save disk space
+- You have different types of GUI programs (such as WebUI) and want them to use the same model files
+- Model files cannot be recognized or found
+
+We provide a way to add extra model search paths via the `extra_model_paths.yaml` configuration file
+
+### Open Config File
+
+<Tabs>
+  <Tab title="Portable/Manual Install">
+  For the ComfyUI version such as [portable](/installation/comfyui_portable_windows) and [manual](/installation/manual_install), you can find an example file named `extra_model_paths.yaml.example` in the root directory of ComfyUI:
+  ```
+  ComfyUI/extra_model_paths.yaml.example
+  ```
+
+  Copy and rename it to `extra_model_paths.yaml` for use. Keep it in ComfyUI's root directory at `ComfyUI/extra_model_paths.yaml`.
+  You can also find the config example file [here](https://github.com/comfyanonymous/ComfyUI/blob/master/extra_model_paths.yaml.example)
+
+  </Tab>
+  <Tab title="ComfyUI Desktop">
+  If you are using the [ComfyUI Desktop](/installation/desktop/windows) application, you can follow the image below to open the extra model config file:
+
+  ![Open Config File](/images/desktop/extra_model_paths.jpg)
+
+  Or open it directly at:
+
+  <Tabs>
+    <Tab title="Windows">
+      ```
+      C:\Users\YourUsername\AppData\Roaming\ComfyUI\extra_models_config.yaml
+      ```
+    </Tab>
+    <Tab title="macOS">
+      ```
+      ~/Library/Application Support/ComfyUI/extra_models_config.yaml
+      ```
+    </Tab>
+  </Tabs>
+
+  You should keep the file in the same directory, should not move these files to other places.
+  </Tab>
+</Tabs>
+
+If the file does not exist, you can create it yourself with any text editor.
+
+### Example Structure
+
+Suppose you want to add the following model paths to ComfyUI:
+
+```
+📁 YOUR_PATH/
+  ├── 📁models/
+  |   ├── 📁 lora/
+  |   │   └── xxxxx.safetensors
+  |   ├── 📁 checkpoints/
+  |   │   └── xxxxx.safetensors
+  |   ├── 📁 vae/
+  |   │   └── xxxxx.safetensors
+  |   └── 📁 controlnet/
+  |       └── xxxxx.safetensors
+```
+
+Then you can configure the `extra_model_paths.yaml` file like below to let ComfyUI recognize the model paths on your device:
+
+```
+my_custom_config:
+    base_path: YOUR_PATH
+    loras: models/loras/
+    checkpoints: models/checkpoints/
+    vae: models/vae/
+    controlnet: models/controlnet/
+```
+or
+
+```
+my_custom_config:
+    base_path: YOUR_PATH/models/
+    loras: loras
+    checkpoints: checkpoints
+    vae: vae
+    controlnet: controlnet
+```
+
+<Warning>
+  For the desktop version, please add the configuration to the existing configuration path without overwriting the path configuration generated during installation. Please back up the corresponding file before modification, so that you can restore it when you make a mistake.
+</Warning>
+
+Or you can refer to the default [extra_model_paths.yaml.example](https://github.com/comfyanonymous/ComfyUI/blob/master/extra_model_paths.yaml.example) for more configuration options. After saving, you need to **restart ComfyUI** for the changes to take effect.
+
+Below is the original config example:
+
+```yaml
+#Rename this to extra_model_paths.yaml and ComfyUI will load it
+
+
+#config for a1111 ui
+#all you have to do is change the base_path to where yours is installed
+a111:
+    base_path: path/to/stable-diffusion-webui/
+
+    checkpoints: models/Stable-diffusion
+    configs: models/Stable-diffusion
+    vae: models/VAE
+    loras: |
+         models/Lora
+         models/LyCORIS
+    upscale_models: |
+                  models/ESRGAN
+                  models/RealESRGAN
+                  models/SwinIR
+    embeddings: embeddings
+    hypernetworks: models/hypernetworks
+    controlnet: models/ControlNet
+
+#config for comfyui
+#your base path should be either an existing comfy install or a central folder where you store all of your models, loras, etc.
+
+#comfyui:
+#     base_path: path/to/comfyui/
+#     # You can use is_default to mark that these folders should be listed first, and used as the default dirs for eg downloads
+#     #is_default: true
+#     checkpoints: models/checkpoints/
+#     clip: models/clip/
+#     clip_vision: models/clip_vision/
+#     configs: models/configs/
+#     controlnet: models/controlnet/
+#     diffusion_models: |
+#                  models/diffusion_models
+#                  models/unet
+#     embeddings: models/embeddings/
+#     loras: models/loras/
+#     upscale_models: models/upscale_models/
+#     vae: models/vae/
+
+#other_ui:
+#    base_path: path/to/ui
+#    checkpoints: models/checkpoints
+#    gligen: models/gligen
+#    custom_nodes: path/custom_nodes
+
+```
+
+For example, if your WebUI is located at `D:\stable-diffusion-webui\`, you can modify the corresponding configuration to
+```yaml
+a111:
+    base_path: D:\stable-diffusion-webui\
+    checkpoints: models/Stable-diffusion
+    configs: models/Stable-diffusion
+    vae: models/VAE
+    loras: |
+         models/Lora
+         models/LyCORIS
+    upscale_models: |
+                  models/ESRGAN
+                  models/RealESRGAN
+                  models/SwinIR
+    embeddings: embeddings
+    hypernetworks: models/hypernetworks
+    controlnet: models/ControlNet
+```
+
+### Add Extra Custom Nodes Path
+
+Besides adding external models, you can also add custom nodes paths that are not in the default path of ComfyUI
+
+<Tip>
+  Please note that this will not change the default installation path of custom nodes, but will add an extra path search when starting ComfyUI. You still need to complete the installation of custom node dependencies in the corresponding environment to ensure the integrity of the running environment.
+</Tip>
+
+Below is a simple configuration example (MacOS), please modify it according to your actual situation and add it to the corresponding configuration file, save it and restart ComfyUI for the changes to take effect:
+
+```yaml
+my_custom_nodes:
+  custom_nodes: /Users/your_username/Documents/extra_custom_nodes
+```
