On many distros there’s a command like Debian/Ubuntu’s “apt build-dep” and Fedora’s “dnf builddep” (https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Building_On_Linux#Setting_up_to_Build_GnuCash_on_Linux).

We use a docker with Arch in CI: https://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash/blob/stable/.github/workflows/ci-docker.yml, https://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash/tree/stable/util/ci/actions/archlinux-test.

The canonical and actually maintained dependency list is https://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash/blob/stable/README.dependencies.

The correct link for the API documentation is https://code.gnucash.org/docs/STABLE/. It appears that the main page has gotten broken, but the modules page has most of the useful content.
