Overview
This WYSIWYG editor allows the user to create, compile and implement new shaders easily into a source mod without any preliminary knowledge of HLSL. The shaders are based on nodes which are connected over bridges to finally compose a flowgraph for each, the vertex and pixel shader (similar to shader/material editors that you may know from other engines). Any shaders created this way can be referenced by a vmt file in a similar manner to shaders that have been created through code.
Furthermore it allows you to create Rendertargets and implement post processing effects on the fly through the same principle.
Note:Shaders created through the editor will not work properly in Hammer or HLMV due to their non-hardcoded nature.

Addendum
If you're experiencing crashes and you can track the crash back with your mdmps into either library of the editor, you can send the mdmp along with a brief description or even a canvas file (if possible) to [1].
Use the talk page of this article or this thread on the Steam forums for any other issues.
