## Health v2 (maintenance only)
Score: 44/100 (v2, computed 2026-09-03T02:20:16.233290+00:00)
- activity 55, release rhythm 8, longevity 80
- inputs: {"age_days": 1120, "days_push": 275, "days_rel": null, "gap_med": null, "n_releases_24m": 0}
- flags: none
- formula: round(0.45*activity + 0.35*rhythm + 0.20*longevity); archived -> min(score, 10)

## What it is
Fooocus is an offline, open-source image generation application built on Stable Diffusion XL with a Gradio interface. It simplifies text-to-image creation so users only need to focus on prompts, requiring minimal setup and as little as 4GB of Nvidia GPU memory.

## Use cases
- generate images from text prompts without parameter tuning
- run an offline alternative to Midjourney locally
- create AI art with minimal installation steps
- use stable diffusion without learning complex UIs
- generate high-quality images on a low-VRAM GPU

## When to choose
- you want simple, prompt-focused image generation with almost no configuration
- you need an offline, free alternative to online image generators
- you have limited GPU memory (4GB+) and want Stable Diffusion XL
- you prefer a polished GUI over node-based workflows

## When to avoid
- you need newer model architectures like Flux
- you want a highly customizable node-based workflow (use ComfyUI)
- you need active feature development, since the project is in bug-fix-only LTS

## Facets
- artifact type: application
