Node-Preview for the Blender Asset Browser

I think that is a feature everybody would like: Node Preview for the Blender Asset Browser in the Shader Editor. May just a preview picture may the hole node setup.

What do you think?

I feel like most of the time, you want to see what the nodes produce, not the nodes themselves. Especially when it's a heavy setup, you can't really read that from a small thumbnail.

That being said, there should be a way for the user to customize the thumbnails no matter what.

for "modifiers" build with geo nodes this will be hard to do .. i think being able to place your own image or animated gif is the best solution

You can already use your own custom images for items stored in the Asset Browser

Yes, or atleast iconography to the nodegroup type: Geoemetry Node, Compositor, Shader, etc
