A quick scan of the tutorial you linked to reveals references to many outdated practices and obsolete software that are very detrimental and harmful to your goal. It is recommended to delete every...

A native window is just an accesor object that allows users to present content to a layer. Applications only use regular laye...

The system only allows applications to create a single (normal) layer. There isn't really a windowing system on the Switch, layers created by applications are fullscreen. EGL also allows you to create OpenGL contexts without assigning a window surface IIRC (and you can switch between contexts using ...
