I'm using Fedora with KDE Plasma on Wayland as my main operating system. I'm curious if there's a tool or feature that allows me to create expandable folders on my home screen, similar to how it works on mobile devices. Ideally, I'd like them to incorporate app shortcuts that expand when clicked, showing a grid of icons and names, rather than navigating away to a separate file explorer or window.

It sounds like you're looking for something similar to how apps are grouped on Android or iOS. In KDE Plasma, you might want to check out adding folder widgets. They can simulate that expandable folder experience right on your desktop. Just create a folder widget and populate it with your shortcuts, and it should work like you're envisioning! Let me know if you need help with the setup.
You can also look into using the Latte Dock. While it's primarily a dock, it has some nifty options for organizing your apps and might give you that feel of mobile folders. Just drag and drop your apps into a group and see if it matches what you need!
Yeah, KDE has some great customization features! If you create a folder view widget on the desktop, you can set it up to display as an expandable folder. It’s not exactly the same as mobile UI but it somewhat mimics the functionality you're after.
