Specific folders in file archive as a widget

It would be nice, to be able to choose specific folders for a widgets tab in the "Home" screen in the backend. I often work with the templates directly in the backend file manager, and often using many clicks to reach a specific folder.

This would also be nice to have for files, to open directly in the editor. For example when working with integration in spreadsheets etc.

Please see attached mockup/example :)

No, not yet... It is possible to create your own widgets though, see this: https://doc.dynamicweb.com/api/html/15daea5e-60a7-6581-389b-489d547f3d64.htm

There are basically 4 base widget types, but what you ask for is a new type that shows an icon and a link, which would be implementing a new widgettype inheriting DashboardElementWidget class.
