Easy Dify Guide

A Friendly, Easy-to-Follow Guide for Dify Newcomers

Introduction

This guide is designed for Dify users of all levels, from beginners to advanced.

Crafted with ❤️ by AlterXYZ

Please note that this is a personal project and not an official guide from Dify.

This guide applies first principles thinking, simplified for easy understanding.

Our goal is to make this guide as straightforward as possible.

Most of the content is based on personal experience, so it may not be 100% accurate or up-to-date.

Some examples are sourced from Dify’s Discord server or GitHub issues, and may include interesting or lesser-known information (with sensitive details removed).

  • Dify’s official documentation has room for improvement. They’re busy with development and expansion; their efforts are far greater than we imagine.

  • Maybe you can say that this guide is an Eng-to-Eng translation.

  • My original thought was “I’ll just whip this up in GitHub Markdown and call it a day.” LOL!

  • I’m happy to answer many questions, but a significant portion are actually covered in the documentation.

  • When I open the docs to find a specific section and plan to share a link, I often think: “Sorry, I don’t really want to read this either 😂. Let me just explain how to solve the problem simply by typing it out.”
