Introduced new functionalities in the file manager application for browsing, listing and opening files. We have added a new command 'get_files' in 'main.rs', which reads entries in a directory and fetches associated metadata. This allows users to view files in a selected directory. Additionally, the command 'open_file' has been added for opening files.
Simultaneously, frontend changes have been made such as: new templates for file lists, handlers for view switching in 'files.js', and rendered files in each mode.
The 'navigation.js' error handling has been improved for invalid navigation.
Improved user experience by adding a breadcrumbs feature for better navigation. This is performed by the newly introduced 'breadcrumbs.js' file which maintains the history of navigated directories.
Overall, these enhanced functionalities improve navigation and file management efficiency for end-users.
This commit includes the setup of a new File Browser system. The system uses Tailwind CSS for styling alongside Tauri for a Rust backend. It also includes a new HTML index file, several JavaScript files for application logic e.g. favourite handling as well as new CSS files for custom styles. Git ignore file is added to exclude unnecessary files to be tracked by git.
This setup is necessary to start developing File Browsing features and provides a base project structure to work on.
