So if I downloaded this and Cangel, basically I would never have to take my SD card out and put it on the computer in order to download games? That's pretty awesome!

You would almost never have to take the sd card out of the nintendo 3ds if you used a FTP program or if you got games from certain websites, you can use F.B.I. to install them through wifi.

Oh okay. Which FTP program should I use? And I don't use FBI to install games btw. I use Big Blue DevMenu.

I personally use the program FlashFXP for FTP transfers but FileZilla seems like the more popular option for a FTP program. Also using F.B.I. you would not have to take up double the amount of space to install .cia files since with F.B.I. you can leave the .cia file on a pc and install it directly using wifi unlike BigBlueMenu.

Everyone I know are using WinSCP for FTP. Also, socketpunch is great for transmitting smaller files, but 3DS wifi is slow as hell so bigger files takes a huge load of time (imho). Also never versions of FBI tend to freeze when installing for longer times (someone says it may be only GUI freeze, but I have never the patience to try that).

This is great project. Maybe it could be adapted to download homebrew? Because all existing tools for HB downloading are... well, not so great.
