Hopefully Nintendo releases the SDK? It's been a decently active platform for indie titles and homebrew games. I'm not 100% sure, but I don't think the 3DS is covered by the same NDA as the Switch in terms of toolchain/docs/etc. I believe you can find those after signing up for a developer account at https://developer.nintendo.com/

I can promise you Nintendo won’t do this.

The way things are going lately they’re probably already leaked.

The kernel source code was leaked too

The 3ds has so much homebrew stuff right now. At this point Nintendo stopping to release updates is a relief.

ctrulib was pretty good when i used it in 2017

Yes. Only thing it's missing is a high-level shader compiler, you have to write shader code in assembly (which honestly isn't too onerous for the graphical fidelity possible on the 3DS)
