0. Main Idea:
   0.1: Hide Data tab from the Dashboard
   0.2. Significantly improve the data/file browser of each study (the one seen when clicking on a study card

1. Data/File Browser Enhancements
   1.1. Provide multiselection for files and folders via keyboard shortcuts or hover-revealed radio buttons.
   1.2. Allow downloading entire folders with automatic zipping functionality.
   1.3. Enable downloads for multiselected files and folders.
   1.4. Support file and folder deletion, with optional confirmation dialogs.
   1.5. Facilitate moving files and folders between studies through drag-and-drop or a "Move to" dialog.
   1.6. Display metadata for files, including size, creation date, and last modification date.
   1.7. Show total size of selected files/folders and overall study size.

2. Dashboard Improvements
   2.1. Display total size for each study in the dashboard view.
   2.2. Enable sorting of studies by size.

3. General Requirements
   3.1. Provide feedback to users (e.g., progress bars, notifications) for file operations like downloads, deletes, and moves.
   3.2. When possible/relevant, get inspired by UX patterns from mainstream operating systems (e.g., Windows Explorer, macOS Finder) for intuitive navigation.
