It is well explained at https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/powerbi-custom-visuals-getting-started-with-developer-tools/. Double check Inside the visual project and Package your visual for use in Power BI Desktop and distribution.
To add a custom visual to a report in Power BI Desktop, see https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/powerbi-custom-visuals-use/.

Hi,
I haven't seen too many recent updated informations unfortunately. Most online demos and videos I found dealt with
'deprecated' versions. Though you can have a look at both videos below which should give you a good basic understanding.

I would also recommend having at least a good basic understanding of D3.js and TypeScript.
Last but least... Practice... practice... and oh did I forget to mention? Practice...Hope this helps.
