### Web Server & UI

### Unified Canvas
The Unified Canvas is a fully integrated canvas implementation with support for all core generation capabilities, in/out-painting, brush tools, and more. This creative tool unlocks the capability for artists to create with AI as a creative collaborator, and can be used to augment AI-generated imagery, sketches, photography, renders, and more.
