Open File Explorer and the side bar on the left, on top is the quick access area and below that is your drive(s).
If you right click on a folder one of the options is "Pin to Quick Access", it will then show up in the explorers quick access side bar.

No, that's not the same
That puts them under Home => Favorites - which means you first have to go to Home, then find & click what you're after. Not the same as a bookomarks toolbar.
In theory, theory and practice are the same. But in practice, they never are.”
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.

In Browser you click on Favorites then on a link.
In Explorer click on Home then on a link.
With two clicks and without navigating - that's great. 
EDIT:
And as we can have more than one tab, one can be Home tab, and the others can be drives or folders.

Not so. In Windows Explorer, you have to first go find Home. It may or may not be visible. A toolbar is always visible at the top

You seem to be against anything.
But - And as we can have more than one tab, one can be Home tab, and the others can be drives or folders.
You don't have to "find" home.

I'm not sure what 'Add To Favorites' you're referring to, but I don't see it.
See this:
https://www.elevenforum.com/t/add-and-remove-favorites-in-file-explorer-home-in-windows-11.6786/
It adds favorites to FILES not FOLDERS.
I expanded this path. I want to create a shortcut to open that path in a new tab.
C:\Projects\Clients\Acme\Project 1
There is no 'Add To Favorites'. Not on the right-click menu, nor anywhere in Explorer
Here's what I want[^]

Sorry - my mistake.
'Add To Favorites' is only available for files.
But you can create Shortcuts to Folders or Pin them somewhere.
Pin:
On File Explorer context menu you should have a possibility to pin a folder to "Quick Access" or "Home"
OR create Shortcuts:
On File Explorer context menu bottom click on "Show more options"
Another context menu appears, select "Send To"
Then you can select from sub menu "Desktop" or "Documents"
It should also be possible to use a Library and pin folders to this library.

You could make a folder called 'bookmarks' on your desktop. Simply populate it with shortcuts to folders and files you want. It isn't a real bookmarks system, but may be the closest thing possible with Explorer.

I had to delete an article because I fibbed.
My regex project had some benchmarks which I thought had it handily spanking Microsoft's regex engine.
I didn't believe them at first, so I pored over the code to look. I even wrote a test to check.
Every one of them was broken. Hazard of working on it every waking hour for 4 days.
I posted an article, with benchmarks and everything, and last night I found out I was full of crap.
So now in an attempt to redeem myself I am taking the project offline and I intend to make it faster than Microsoft's.
Because I know it's doable and I am not a liar, even if sleep deprivation wants to make one out of me.

you are truly a driven personality in a positive way.
I wish I could accomplish 1/10th of what you done for CP.
Don't lose that, but learn to pace yourself.

I wasn't *actually* sleep deprived but it was easier to say that than to explain. I had time because not much work, and I like to keep occupied.
But, even not sleep deprived I'm sure you know what's it like to hit the bricks on an ambitious personal project for days on end. At the end of it, it's gratifying but you feel a little lost, you know? Like "what just happened? I don't remember building ALL of this, but there it is") - like that.
By the fourth day i was a little loopy.

Been there, done that. In grad school, I would sleep on foam rubber pallet in the corner of the computer lab so I wouldn't have to make the drive home and then back again. This could on for 2-3 days, a week, until a goal was reached. "loopy" is a good description. The next day it's all in the past.
I remember visiting this code several years later, "what the hell was I thinking".
We didn't have a work remotely option in those days. Only slow baud rate modem stuff.

Waterfall meant you had an overall plan (high level design); then did incremental development (detail design and programing) of "deliverables" (critical path).
Agile is incremental development without a plan. Lots of huddles and no play book.
"Before entering on an understanding, I have meditated for a long time, and have foreseen what might happen. It is not genius which reveals to me suddenly, secretly, what I have to say or to do in a circumstance unexpected by other people; it is reflection, it is meditation." - Napoleon I

Over here we are not very agile either, especially my colleague who has to do low-level video stuff in C++.
It might work for other IT branches that are more "standard" however.

Agile was invented by project managers for project managers. It does not aid in the development process, just shows how much better or worse developers can guess at how much they can accomplish in a sprint.

I believe that you may mean Agile Scrum. Scrum is the thing that adds all that management stuff on top.
When I think of Agile, I think only of the original 12 Principles[^] (and they are quite good).
But, of course, no one could sell that one sheet of paper as an Enterprise Methodology so everyone piled on and added on so they could sell you a book for $49.99 and a certification for $3500.
I recently posted a really good conversation about Agile between Allen Holub & Dave Farley who state: Agile & Scrum[^] don’t work.
It’s long but definitely worth a listen.

Possibly. My perception is that the world in general means Agile Scrum when they just say Agile.
The majority of the 12 Principles of Agile apply to any software development methodology. A few of the Agile-specific principles, e.g., "Deliver working software frequently", do not work well with certain types of software being developed, and/or do not apply to the first piece of working application.
