I want to have a go at developing switch homebrew and I really have no talent and no 3.0 switch. Can I use the emulators? Any advice? how can I start?
 
I can't help you with the emulators, but programming-wise:

If you want to use libnx:
Install devkitpro, devkita64 and libnx. There is a checkbox in devkita64 to install libnx. You can follow http://switchbrew.org/index.php?title=Setting_up_Development_Environment

If you wan to use libtransistor:
Just follow https://reswitchedweekly.github.io/Development-Setup/

In general:
Learn C/C++and read and understand the examples and/or homebrew by other persons.
I installed devkitpro a few hours ago. differance between libnx and libtransistor?
 
in my opinion, libnx is less close to SVC calls, you have less technical calls and functions, and you have some bundle functions including several SVC calls
but i found bugs in libnx

currently coding with libtransistor 1.1.2, but will move to libnx in the next weeks
