Describe the feature/enhancement

Add a Folder view, this would work as follows:

  • Icon on the left side toolbar (with Collections etc)
  • When clicked, it would show the top-level folder (for the current selected library)
  • This would allow drill down into sub-folders
  • When selecting a valid audiobook, it would play

A good example of what this could look like is in Plex, going to TV Shoes > Library > Then in the "top filters" where it shows "TV Shows" (left of the sort option), select "Folders".

This would be wonderful! Before I switched to audiobookshelf, I used an app that had folder view, and It's still my favorite way to organize audiobooks, Genre -> Series -> 01 – book title . It might not look as nice, but I find it much more efficient to find the book I'm looking for.
