I'm the one who started and tried to maintained that 3DS homebrew list. It's incomplete and missing information on each homebrew.
in the end, 3Dbrew ended being the one other people maintained, but as always missing the "bad" ones, "backup" related homebrew or tools. obviously piracy tool (ticket, cert, etc.) are also not on wikitemp.
For switch, I'd be nice to have a list too, but I think for now switchbru is doing a nice job referencing all homebrew.
if someone want to make a similar list on wikitemp and need an account, you can ask tj_cool or me (account creation is done on request only).
edit:
I see a wikia has been created for this. it's probably easier to get an account than wikitemp, but I like the idea of having a single place with all gaming and homebrew related articles.
also, the templates already exists, it can be easy to adapt, and I'm not sure people will think about wikia to get a list of homebrew. (maybe not on wikitemp either, the best place would be switchbrew)
Wikitemp would be great to list all tools like for 3DS page, it's a thing other websites don't do.appstore only has homebrew, no computer or android tools!
edit:
Newly started Wiki homebrew page : https://wiki.gbatemp.net/wiki/List_of_Switch_homebrew_applications
Please, help maintaining it by adding missing or new released homebrew.
thank you.

I have been working on a tool to update ReiNX files through your computer (switch doesn't go online). To give it more of a use, I plan to also include many useful tools. https://github.com/lunalik2/Unofficial-ReiNX-SD-Stash-Updater. It is my first python project, and first complex program overall, so the code is very sloppy, but it works fine.

I was just thinking, is there any homebrew that can display whether pin 10 is shorted? A jig tester of sorts for an eventual online update where you would be sure you would reboot into RCM else fuses burned.

I thought so. It would at least save users who've updated without burning fuses and corrupted boot partitions the need to reflash their original firmware to test their jigs. It's not likely that any offline methods would be ready day 1 that Nintendo pushes updates, and an even more extreme hypothetical would be if they start banning updated consoles where they have no record of it having connected to update.

I believe this is what NSPower aims to be achieving however given the way Switch handles security, such a tool is going to need constant updating of an unbanned console certificate since any direct downloading from the CDN risks a superban.
No no. You download from CDN on PC using your favorite method (CDNSP, BOB, etc) then just install the downloaded NSP over your local network
Tinfoil is working on network installation as we speak. And because it is open-source, someone else may fork it with one of the CDNSP available so what you are describing is nearly a reality.
1. A video player (If it can play different formats and different resolution videos it would be great)
2. Unlock the built in webrowser with an app
3. Media server client (My dream would be nindendo releasing a Plex client or an official Kodi Port)
4. Hardware accelerated graphics for hombrew (Maybe this one isn't really hombrew by diffinition but OpenGL or something would be friggin awesome for hombrew)
5. N64 emulation (Once we have Hardware accelerated graphics)
6. Manga reader or PDF reader

a video player has been released today to play mp4.
It's using the internal switch video player, I don't know the specification (except "it plays mp4" ok, but it's only a container, not a video format... x264 ? x265? audio?)
and it's currently packed to NSP using
it also seems you have to compile it to add videos directly inside the package ?
I'm sure it's not what you expected, another one will probably be released. I think multiple media players are in development right now.

Yeah I saw this as well.. I think I hold on until there is something available that doesnt rely on the official nintendo SDK.
I heard that there are people working on it so I will just wait.

Single rom emulator NSP creator.
Example: Program that creates an NSP that only plays A Link to The Past for NES. And then a separate NSP for Super Mario World.
It would basically be a virtual console channel creator.
If someone shows me a simple way to compile Switch homebrew, I will try and make this myself and share with everyone. It should be easy.

Actually I may have an idea. I m tired of shutting the switch off by holding the power button every time. Can someone please port the 3ds quick shutdown Homebrew onto the nintendo switch ?

Some sort of modification to the default lock screen to actually require a password of some sort to unlock. This, while ultimately trivially bypassed, would act as a reasonable deterrent/barrier to less technically minded people trying to commit mischief.
I do believe that the parental controls app can do something similar to this, however I'm not certain it would work when offline or banned.

An app Turn off auto RCM when not needed to avoid battery drainage and shortage of life with time.
