Audio plugin developmento with DPF: first plugin
DPF, short name for Distrho Plugin Framework, is a framework for building audio plugins in C++, compared to JUCE is smaller and more "raw", but there's no commercial licensing or limitation, also it supports open formats like LADSPA and LV2. It has support for Linux and Windows, here I will assume you're using Linux, so some commands may differ in Windows.

Declarative, non-intrusive, compile-time C++ reflection for audio plug-ins
Re 1: Why not create a DPF wrapper for this and have DPF create the ladspa/dssi/vst2/vst3/lv2 for you? -> https://github.com/DISTRHO/DPF

How to get started with building a plugin that can work on other platforms?
Nice to see you are interested in making audio plugins. Especially with LV2 support. OK, you can do LV2 plugin programming from scratch (like I did). The LV2 book https://lv2plug.in/book/ is a good starting point. But I would recommend the use of a plugin framework like DPF https://github.com/DISTRHO/DPF instead.

I'm developing a basic sample player plugin called Drops.
I use DPF as a plugin framework so any wayland stuff should come to that. I have no clue how to implement such features. I'm not a real programmer. I only act as one on the internet.

Alternatively you could look at using DPF to make the plugin: https://github.com/DISTRHO/DPF

Best languages to learn for making lightweight plugin effects and instruments with their own wrappers?
There are free (as far as licensing goes) alternatives such as DPF, but you will be doing a lot more of your own legwork with this system as not as much is provided for you.

How do I reroute audio output from Carla to Ardour's audio track?
BTW if I made an alternative to samplv1, one of the reasons was the lack of support for v1 plugins in Ardour. https://github.com/clearly-broken-software/drops/releases/tag/v1.0-beta.1 There are binary downloads, no need for compiling.
