SD.Next supports two main backends: Diffusers and Original:

• Diffusers: Based on new Huggingface Diffusers implementation
  Supports original SD models as well as all models listed below
  This backend is set as default for new installations
  See wiki article for more information
• Original: Based on LDM reference implementation and significantly expanded on by A1111
  This backend and is fully compatible with most existing functionality and extensions written for A1111 SDWebUI
  Supports SD 1.x and SD 2.x models
  All other model types such as SD-XL, LCM, PixArt, Segmind, Kandinsky, etc. require backend Diffusers

SD.Next comes with built-in control for all types of text2image, image2image, video2video and batch processing

SD.Next comes with several extensions pre-installed:

• ControlNet
• Agent Scheduler
• Image Browser

• We'd love to have additional maintainers with full admin rights. If you're interested, ping us!
• In addition to general cross-platform code, desire is to have a lead for each of the main platforms. This should be fully cross-platform, but we'd really love to have additional contributors and/or maintainers to join and help lead the efforts on different platforms.

• Additional credits are listed in Credits
• Licenses for modules are listed in Licenses
