are there any sort of apps on pc that can run smilebasic games? I'm going to copy the code already on sb and paste it to the engine, and run the game...I need the engine.

yes

can a person make one?

yes

how would you, and how difficult would it be?

yes
if anyone knows any BASIC engines for pc, tell me.

There are plenty of BASICs for PC, they just aren't based on SmileBASIC, so they're not totally compatible. In particular, how SmileBASIC handles graphics, with its GRPs, BGs, and sprites, is very unique among BASICs, so you couldn't just copy and paste and expect it to work. It's possible to write a SmileBASIC clone for PC, but I wouldn't call it easy. You need a full understanding of how SmileBASIC works, or you'll end up having small differences that cause programs to work on one but not the other.

There's otyasmilebasic, but it's not as good as the actual SmileBASIC. It's the closest you're going to get apart from an emulator though.

What's the easiest way to edit the code? There is no "edit" button so I have no idea where to look.

Oh yes I have searched far and wide for said edit button, no where to be seen...only if it was in plain sight where everyone could just use it...

It opens normal files out of its PROJECT directory with LOAD. Use a separate text editor.

I tried using Notepad, but it saves the text with a different file type that can't be read with otyaSmileBASIC. Which text editor would you recommend?

I recommend specifying the filetype with the LOAD instruction. It should load them exactly as they are, including extensions. If your problem is something else, I'm not sure what to say.

I wonder if SB would work with citra...I'll have to dump SB and test it sometime.

it kinda does but not really

I was wondering this as well... Too bad there isn't any. Might as well write one myself then.
