Hi Dan, It's hard for me to say how any addons I've been a part of have been developed step-by-step. It really ends up depending on what the addon is supposed to do. Generally speaking, if I was tinkering with one that called a webpage, I'd look at a similar addon and go from there. Do you have a specific functionality you're trying to build? Using that as a base, there may be able to find a similar addon (https://prometheus.atlas-sys.com/display/ILLiadAddons/Addons+Directory) that could serve as a model.

But I can offer that he put them together after seeing examples that Shawn at Atlas emailed him. I hate to give the response, "it's easy and with that example, you'll figure it out fast," but that's all I can offer.
