Assets Browser
<<>><<>><<>><<>><<>><<>><<>><<>>
Organize, preview, and reuse your Unity prefabs across all your projects
Assets Browser is a Unity Editor addon designed for creators who want a clean, centralized way to store and reuse any type of prefab — VFX, props, systems, utilities — without duplicating assets or losing track of old projects.
Build once. Reuse forever.
What is this?
Assets Browser is a cross-project prefab library system for Unity.
It allows you to store complete prefab items — including all their dependencies (materials, textures, shaders, scripts, etc.) — in an external vault folder, accessible from any Unity project that has the tool installed.
Each prefab item is indexed, tagged, previewed, and importable in just a few clicks.
No more opening old projects just to copy a prefab.
What does it do?
Assets Browser indexes your prefabs into a structured, searchable database.
Each item can include:
- One or more prefabs
- Materials, textures, shaders
- Scripts and supporting assets
- Optional preview images or animated previews
- Custom tags and metadata
From the Prefab Vault browser, you can:
- Search and filter prefabs instantly
- Preview items visually before importing
- Edit item metadata (name, tags, preview)
- Import clean, organized prefab packages into your current project
Everything stays external, reusable, and version-safe.
Perfect For
- VRChat avatar and world creators
- Unity developers working across multiple projects
- Tool creators and technical artists
- Anyone building a personal prefab library
- Teams or solo creators who want a clean asset workflow
