Summary
In Unreal Editor for Fortnite (UEFN), the Custom Node is missing from the Material Editor. Unlike in Unreal Engine 5, where you can use a Custom Node to write HLSL code directly, this feature does not appear in UEFN, making it impossible to use custom shader functions.

Additional Notes
I try to recreate my custom node HSLS in material but it was very very hard
I try to recreate sobel matrix with material graph
Is this an intentional limitation in UEFN, or is it a bug? If this feature is missing, are there any plans to add it in a future update?
