Spoiler: 
<a href="https://www.pexlechris.dev/library-viewer/for-woocommerce/" rel="nofollow ugc">LIBRARY VIEWER FOR WOOCOMMERCE ADD-ON</a> has been released! Check it 😉
With Library Viewer, you can display the containing files and the containing folders of a “specific folder” of your (FTP) server to your users in the front-end.
The significant difference from other similar plugins is that: 
1. You can allow users to view that the files exist, but cannot open them if they are not logged in (or if they are not administrators, or authors etc…). 
2. You can allow users to view files in a custom viewer or redirect them through a RESTful web service of your choice(examples exists below).
<a href="https://www.pexlechris.dev/library-viewer/demo-wp" rel="nofollow ugc">DEMO</a>
For this plugin (the free version), the “specific folder” is the folder 
“library” of your httpdocs(yoursite.com/library). 
If you want to display other folder (and its files) that isn’t contained in yoursite.com/library , you need to use the path parameter of <a href="https://www.pexlechris.dev/library-viewer/pro-wp" rel="nofollow ugc">Library Viewer Pro</a>.
This plugin adds the [library-viewer] shortcode in your WordPress site! 
So the only thing that you must do to display the folders and files in the front-end is to add this shortcode in a post, page, widget etc.
The [library-viewer] shortcode get optional parameters that extend the functionality of plugin:

Clients can find managing websites difficult, especially when dealing with document uploads and a cluttered media library. With the Front-End Managed Files Block plugin you can make file lists that clients can manage easily via the frontend of the website.
<h4>MATCHES YOUR THEME</h4>
File blocks inherit style from whichever theme your site is using. This means they will look great with minimal or no CSS tweaking required.
<h4>CREATE WITH CLASSIC & GUTENBERG EDITORS</h4>
The Front-End Managed Files Block plugin supports the creation of blocks via both the Classic and Gutenberg editors. The Classic editor has a menu dropdown which allows for inserting a file block with ease. The Gutenberg editor has a custom block which makes adding and customising file blocks quick and easy, you can also add or remove files while inside the editor.
<h4>IT’S JUST A SHORTCODE</h4>
File blocks at their core are just a shortcode – so remain usable with third party page editors. You can even include them inside a widget.
<h4>NO MEDIA CLUTTER</h4>
Uploaded files are stored directly in the database and don’t clutter your media library with unnecessary files.
<h4>CUSTOMISE</h4>
<ul>
<li>List Sorting – Sort file blocks by name, upload date, size and type.</li>
<li>Disable File Icons – File blocks will show a file type icon by default – this can be disabled per files block.</li>
<li>Restrict User Access – Allow only specific users permission to upload and delete, these can even be non-editors. Pro Version Only</li>
<li>Restrict File Types – Allow only the file types you want to be uploaded, per files block. Pro Version Only</li>
