The Addons.xcu file contains information about which buttons shall be in the toolbar.

You are right, it would be nice to make things easier and we are working on it. The plan is to have some tools that can generate the necessary files and integrate these tools into NetBeans, Eclipse or our Basic IDE, but this isn't done yet. When these tools will be done all you will have to specify is which commands shall be added to your toolbar or menu and which code shall be bound to it. Until then you could study existing code to learn how the things work together. Which programming language have you planned to use?
