## Running with Docker
Start by installing Docker, Docker Compose, and the NVIDIA Container Toolkit on
your host. Next, edit `compose.yaml` and update the `UID` and `GID` variables to
match your user. Additional fields are documented in the file for further
customization.
Once ready, build and run the image locally:
```shell
# (Re)build the Docker image. Run this before the first start, after updating
# ComfyUI, or after changing any build arguments in `compose.yaml`.
docker compose build
# Start ComfyUI. This reuses the most recently built image.
docker compose up
```
To stop and remove the container along with its volumes, run:
```shell
docker compose down -v
```
