Diffusers

Diffusers provides pretrained diffusion models and the building blocks for custom image, video, and audio workflows.

It has two main paths.

• DiffusionPipeline supports few-line inference with pretrained checkpoints, plus adapters like LoRA. This is the easy path for generation.
• Modular Diffusers enables composable blocks and ModularPipeline for custom pipelines when you need more control.

Optimizations such as offloading and quantization keep large models runnable on memory-constrained devices. If memory is not an issue, Diffusers also supports torch.compile for faster inference.

If you're a beginner, start with the Hugging Face Diffusion Models Course. It covers diffusion theory and how to generate images, fine-tune models, and more with Diffusers.

The Quickstart also includes a copyable agent setup prompt for inference.
