After first building and opening Jaya, I was greeted by...a page, saying something to the effect of "This folder is empty". This doesn't seem like the clearest way to greet the user upon opening the app, so how about we start with a friendly overview of their various storage spaces? I've created a quick mockup of what this could look like below:

I'll admit, it's not the most original design (being blatantly derived from Windows's File Explorer's "This PC" page, but it's a start. Potential improvements could be made by offering, say, an MFU list of frequent destinations or something, and/or possibly having a "favorite places" group instead of the "local folders" group shown above.

...I was hoping to add the "Enhancement" label to this issue, but I don't seem to be able to at the moment.

This is indeed a great suggestion @Splitwirez . To be very frank, idea behind this project is to bring UI of Windows explorer cross platform with a lot of exiting features so don't feel bad about taking ideas from it. I will definately consider this as next feature in pipeline for v2.

PS: I have added appropriate permissions for everyone to add labels and modify stuff in repository.

This mockup has a more...refined potential design for this start page thing.

IMHO three areas are misleading. Just two. If you really need to show infos you can do in a bar below.
