There is woefully little documentation available. It's pretty much just what comes in the DevKit and what you can find on the forum.

The best you can do is to study the example add-ons that come with the DevKit

...also, do browse this forum. There are is a 'sticky' topic at the top of the list on getting started with the devkit:

http://archicad-talk.graphisoft.com/viewtopic.php?t=2699

and there have been other new users asking questions over the years. Those threads and the docs may help you get started.

The key is to study each example provided with the kit to understand the structure and interface of cross-platform add-ons.
