That's the source code for the project:
https://github.com/rw-r-r-0644/WiiU-FileManager

Anyway I guess I'm just too lazy to finish it, right now at least..

EDIT: I can try to finish it after school starts
EDIT2: If you compile it, you can open a file/folder menu by long pressing it...iirc the delete function formats your sdcard because of a bug (didn't edit it in a long time) so don't use it...the other functions aren't implemented yet

I would like to be able to view and edit the contents of my SD Card on my Wii U, but it seems that I have to go into vWii via Wiiexplorer to do this. Is there a homebrew app that's like that, but in Wii U mode?
why not just use ftpiiu it allows you to edit the files on the sd using a computer wirelesly

Extra steps that don't need to be there. Sure you can just use FTP on the 3DS to rename files, but you can do it without needing anything else since there's multiple apps to do so. It's a "Quality of Life" improvement as they say.

I don't always have internet connection. Besides, if I wanted to do that, I could just insert my sd card into a pc. The opposite that I'm asking.
i honestly doubt that will happen because the wii u modding community is dying off

Just saying, you'd think the DSi modding community would be dead but a lot of 3DS modders started working on stuff for it. And that's years in the ground compared to the Wii U. Also there's the github that was posted with a WIP file explorer.

If I'm on my Wii U and I realized I put a file in the wrong place, I don't want to open FTPii U, open FileZilla, check to make sure the IP hasn't changed, find the file, move the file, have an error happen, try again, then put my laptop away, exit FTPii U.

Or open the File Explorer I would call SDii U, find the file, move the file, exit SDii U.

there is no alternative and there most likely wont be one for a long time if ever
