FLUX AI: Install locally, use for free (without ComfyUI) – Simple Beginner Tutorial for FLUX.1 [dev]

In this tutorial I will show you how to install FLUX AI quickly and easily locally and create generative images free of charge.
We use StabilityMatrix as package manager, Stable Diffusion WebUI Forge as interface and as model/checkpoint and VAE FLUX.1 [dev].

Download all necessary data:
StabilityMatrix: https://github.com/LykosAI/StabilityM...
Model: https://huggingface.co/lllyasviel/flu...
VAE: https://huggingface.co/black-forest-l...

Instructions for the local installation of FLUX AI:
1. Download and install StabilityMatrix (preferably install as portable version)
2. Start StabilityMatrix and install the “Stable Diffusion WebUI Forge” package
3. Download the model and place it in the directory \Data\Models\StableDiffusion
4. Download the VAE and place it in the directory \Data\Models\VAE
5. Start Forge, select FLUX Model and VAE, write prompt and generate image

Optional FLUX settings in Forge: https://github.com/lllyasviel/stable-...

Now you have everything you need to create as many generative images as you want offline on your computer using FLUX AI.
