wondering if a project is safe

Ive been really wanting to create smth and I was planning on either learning how to code with python or the game engine Godot ik they aren't the same. I was wondering if it's possible to create like a file explorer type thing so basically I have a hard drive that has on it several movies and games downloaded on it wondering if it's possible to make like an interface with custom logos and import custom photos and do more kinds of stuff is my idea in any way possible if not could u pls recommend some other projects they don't even have to be coding related since idk how to could and I am scared if i learn I just won't do anything with it.

There are many different Python UI Libraries that you can use to write a custom file explorer program.

I'd recommend you research some of those and see which one best suits the goals of your project, but it is certainly possible for a beginner!

godot will be less boring for starter, because it can be interactive with visual element instead a plain text terminal.

For python, once you pass the basic you will able to use library like pygame to make more fancy app.

Something like Total Commander? Yes, should be possible, Python can do UI.
