Description
Basically, it would be nice if we had something like Quick Access on Windows. The overview would contain the default folders and possibly also recently added files.
Additionally, it would be nice to have something like libraries.
For example, the overview has the folder "Music". Said folder isn't actually the "storage/emulated/0/Music" folder. Instead, when opening it, it shows a list of folders that contain audio files (Music, Ringtones, Downloads), and when clicking on one of these folders you see all audio files within that folder.
An example would be the homescreen of File Manager Plus.

Research direction
Review the existing home-screen and folder-navigation behavior before defining the scope of this feature. The issue proposes a Quick Access-style overview, recent files, and library views that group folders containing audio files; done would require an agreed design and implementation for these behaviors.
