It's not necessary to use PostGIS/PostgreSQL immediately, you can also
directly publish your shapefiles inside GeoServer, without importing them
into a database.
For your first experiments this should be enough.
You just have to configure a Store (a Shapefile store if you have just one,
or a "Directory of spatial files" one if you have more) and publish one or
more layers from it.
You can find information on the GeoServer user manual on how to do that, in
particular here:
http://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/data/vector/index.html
When you will be confident with GeoServer you could try to import those
shapefiles into a PostGIS database to get better performance.

This is more a Leaflet related question, so I suggest you to ask to leaflet
mailing lists (if there are any, I don't know exactly, but I presume they
exist) or search some tutorial/docs on how to use wms and wfs services with
leaflet. Basically in your case Geoserver publishes wms services on the
http://localhost:8082/geoserver/wms and wfs services on the
http://localhost:8082/geoserver/wfs url. The
http://localhost:8082/geoserver/web url is just the admin UI endpoint.
Regard,
