This is available in version 1.0 of Sprute ([https://github.com/sprited-ai/sprute](https://github.com/sprited-ai/sprute)).

**How is this different from SpriteDX?**

SpriteDX is not developed to be a online tooling. Sprute is more geared towards open source CLI tool.

**Next Steps**:

*   Next step is to create the Comfy workflow for sprute sprite animation (candidate for v2 release).
