UE Material Snippets is a library of material snippets for use in Unreal Engine. Each material comes with a preview, snippet to copy, and description to help you choose the right one for extending functionality to your material. I created this because I work on many different projects and often reuse similar material patterns. Instead of adding bulky material functions to every project, I streamlined the process by compiling small, easy-to-copy snippets.

Materials

The materials are defined in the materials.json file. Each material has the following properties:

author: The author of the material.
name: The name of the material.
categories: A list of categories the material belongs to.
preview: A path to the preview image of the material.
snippet: A path to the snippet file of the material.
description: A brief description of the material.

Usage

To copy a material snippet, click on the preview, and follow the description or comments in the nodes.
