CTRXplorer is an open source SD file manager for the 3DS. Its design is based around the UI functions of the ctrcommon library by Steveice10. So, if you have been a FBI user in the past, it may look familiar to you. It's goal is to be a simple, functional tool for managing your files without any unneeded bloat.
Note from developer:
This is a fully capable file manager, and as such per definition a powerful tool. While its implementation tries to prevent you from accidental/reckless acts, it still assumes you know what you're doing. For example, nothing (except from a quick confirmation prompt) will prevent you from just deleting the Nintendo 3DS folder. While being thoroughly tested and in daily use by a number of users, please understand that the homebrew is not entirely bug-free and use it responsibly.

User guide
FAQ
Q. Why is copying files so slow?
The 3DS internal hardware doesn't allow for more speed.
Q. Why can't I receive/manage files via network?
ftBrony offers exactly that and it is unlikely that CTRXplorer will ever get any network functionality.
Q. Why can't I view videos and images and/or listen to audio?
An internal media player goes beyond the scope of CTRXplorer, which has the goal to be just a simple, no-bloat file manager.
If you absolutely must have media play capabilities, it is suggested to take a look at Sunshell.
