Most Blender modifiers can be realized using Geometry Nodes. For example, to make meshes “spherical” we can realize the Cast To Sphere modifier with only 5 geometry nodes.

Shaders with the parallax effect looks very impressive when modeling windows – if the camera moves around the scene, the view from the window also shifts slightly, creating the illusion of a large open space outside the window.
In order to bind the “face” direction of one object to another object, Blender usually uses the Track To constraint. However, if necessary, we can make the same tracking constraint using Geometry Nodes.
To create radial arrays – the arrangement of objects along a circular path, the “Array” modifier is usually used in Blender. However, such an array can be easily made using Blender Geometry Nodes.
In Blender, using Geometry Nodes, we can make a simple and at the same time effective text decoration in several threads.
A simple but effective way to visualize an object laser scanning in a sci-fi style can be done in Blender using Geometry Nodes.
The simplest “Inset Faces” operation – extruding polygons individually into themselves, can be done in Blender Geometry Nodes with just two nodes.

Using Geometry Nodes in Blender, we can create simple bodies of revolution – objects which shape is determined by the rotation of the surrounding profile around the coordinate axe.

With Geometry Nodes in Blender, we can quickly distribute many small objects along the boundaries of a single large mesh and adjust the size of the footprint or area.
MatCap is a material with just one texture, but it allows to quickly and conveniently show how a mesh will look with a certain material and in a certain light. When we assign a MatCap by selecting it in the 3D viewport shading options (Shading – Lighting – MatCap), the MatCap is assigned to all objects in the scene at once. However, if we need to selectively assign a MatCap to some meshes, MatCap can be emulated using shader nodes.
