+## Development Environment Setup
+
+### Setting Up with UV (Recommended)
+
+*Added 2025-05-02 by kairin*
+
+We recommend using [UV](https://github.com/astral-sh/uv) for faster, more reliable package management:
+
+1. **Install UV**:
+   ```bash
+   curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
+   source $HOME/.local/bin/env  # For bash/zsh
+   ```
+
+2. **Set up development environment**:
+   ```bash
+   git clone https://github.com/comfyanonymous/ComfyUI.git
+   cd ComfyUI
+   
+   # Create virtual environment
+   uv venv
+   source .venv/bin/activate  # Linux/macOS
+   # or
+   .venv\Scripts\activate     # Windows
+   
+   # Install dependencies
+   uv pip install -r requirements.txt
+   
+   # Install development dependencies
+   uv add --dev pytest black isort
+   ```
+
+3. **Install in development mode**:
+   ```bash
+   uv pip install -e .
+   ```

+## Installation Options
+
+### Option 1: Install with UV (Recommended)
+
+*Added 2025-05-02*
+
+[UV](https://github.com/astral-sh/uv) is a faster, more reliable Python package installer that we now recommend for ComfyUI.
+
+1. **Install UV**:
+   ```bash
+   curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
+   source $HOME/.local/bin/env  # For bash/zsh
+   ```
+
+2. **Install ComfyUI dependencies**:
+   ```bash
+   # Create and activate virtual environment
+   uv venv
+   source .venv/bin/activate  # Linux/macOS
+   # or
+   .venv\Scripts\activate     # Windows
+   
+   # Install dependencies
+   uv pip install -r requirements.txt
+   ```
+
+For detailed instructions on using UV with ComfyUI, see our [UV Migration Guide](UV_MIGRATION.md).
+
+### Option 2: Install with pip (Traditional)
 
 ### AMD GPUs (Linux only)
 AMD users can install rocm and pytorch with pip if you don't have it already installed, this is the command to install the stable version:

+# ComfyUI Migration to UV Package Manager
+
+## What is UV?
+
+[UV](https://github.com/astral-sh/uv) is a modern Python package installer and resolver written in Rust. It serves as a drop-in replacement for pip with significant performance improvements:
+
+- **Speed**: UV installs packages 10-100x faster than pip
+- **Reliability**: Better dependency resolution to avoid conflicts
+- **Compatibility**: Works with existing requirements.txt files
+- **Modern**: Built with Rust for performance and safety
+
+## Why Migrate from pip to UV?
+
+- Faster installation of dependencies
+- Improved virtual environment management
+- Better handling of dependency conflicts
+- Consistent installation experience across platforms
+- Compatibility with existing pip workflows
+
+## Installation
+
+Install UV:
+
+```bash
+# Install UV
+curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
+
+# Add to PATH (bash/zsh)
+source $HOME/.local/bin/env
+
+# Or for fish shell
+# source $HOME/.local/bin/env.fish
+```
+
+## Using UV with ComfyUI
+
+### Basic Usage
+
+```bash
+# Create a virtual environment
+uv venv
+source .venv/bin/activate  # On Linux/macOS
+# .venv\Scripts\activate   # On Windows
+
+# Install dependencies
+uv pip install -r requirements.txt
+
+# Install advanced dependencies (if needed)
+uv pip install -r requirements_advanced.txt
+```
+
+### UV Native Commands
+
+Instead of using the pip-compatible interface, you can use UV's native commands:
+
+```bash
+# Install packages
+uv add packagename
+
+# Install dev dependencies
+uv add --dev pytest black
+
+# View dependency tree
+uv tree
+
+# Update dependencies
+uv sync
+```
+
+## Migration Tips
+
+1. UV is designed to be a drop-in replacement for pip, so most commands work similarly
+2. Existing requirements.txt files are fully compatible
+3. For best results, start with a fresh virtual environment
+4. UV includes built-in lockfile support for reproducible environments
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+If you encounter issues:
+
+- Ensure you have the latest version of UV: `uv self update`
+- Try running with verbose output: `uv -vvv pip install -r requirements.txt`
+- Check the [UV documentation](https://github.com/astral-sh/uv) for known issues
