Here is the short version:

All applications install desktop files to /usr/share/applications/

/etc/X11/desktop-menus/applications.menu describes how those are
assembled into a menu layout.

Folders in applications.menu are constructed based on the categories
desktop files are in. The desktop files have Categories=Foo;Bar;Baz; 
lines, and then applications.menu includes things by category.

applications.menu can also include or exclude specific desktop files, 
using <Include> or <Exclude> tags, there are some examples in the
default file.
